Hi: There's an obvious question here.  You're running a later version of 
MythDora than you were in January.  You didn't get upgraded a week 
before your last set of EIT data, by any chance?  Maybe the 'use EIT' 
setting got changed?  In the standard mythtvsetup that's in the Capture 
Cards section.

And you are running a matched Backend/Frontend?  I think you'd have 
other problems if you weren't.
