Hi Mike,

That's really weird then.

All the upcoming recording section was empty, so was the recording schedules
but as soon as I went into setup, stopping the backend then allowed
mythfilldatabase to run everything was back to normal.

Anyone seem symptoms like this?

Thanks

Rich

Nope.

 Is the wiki wrong?

If you're truly using an EIT-only setup, there's no reason for it.
 Something else was broken.
