It's sticking (in the database), you're just being shown the wrong value 
in the UI.  So, it takes faith to use MythTV with more than one 
Schedules Direct lineup.

It's just a bug in the UI code in mythtv-setup.

http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/6637

It's one ticket no one is very motivated to fix since we're throwing 
away all of the mythtv-setup UI and completely replacing it, and it's 
not an obvious bug, so the time spent on figuring out what Qt4 is doing 
differently that requires changing for the old/dead UI code to work is 
kind of a waste--since the functionality works properly.
