Thanks for the prompt response.  In mythtv-setup (both with and w/o back end
running), I choose video sources, antenna (my only source), changed grabber
to SD, changed my userid and password, selected Retrieve Lineups.  Direct
Data Lineup box is now empty.  Input Connections is as before.  Channel
Editor still has my 10 channels, as before upgrade.

The Direct Data Lineup box being empty seemed strange.  When I look at My
Account on the SD site, it shows Zap2It icon under the Subscribed Lineups,
although I don't recall ever adding this as a new lineup.  So I went to add
a new lineup, and that has solved the problem.  To the right of the Zap2It
icon I now see information about my lineup.

Ran mythfilldatabase again.  I now have data for 14 days.  Thanks for
pointing me in the right direction.
