One quick note...the UK xml grabbing run for the HLS channel ran at
midnight as per my cron job. The information screen said that the next
suggested run time will be at midnight...there was no automatic run of the
Schedules Direct mythfilldatabase so that listings info was not updated.

Is there a possibility that the regular random mythfilldatabase run for the
Schedules Direct channels won't get triggered because the suggested time
will always be at the cron time?
