No, that's how long Schedules Direct takes to recognize that the
account is valid.

How long it takes MythTV to retry a download is separate.  It
typically does this once per day, so on average it would take 12
hours.

Greg is correct.  The right thing to do is to log into the box and
force a download to happen immediately. sudo mythfilldatabase
--dd-grab-all should do the trick if it hasn't already happened by
now.
