Glad you got it going. FWIW here's a section of a recent mythDVBcut log
file. Looks as if I thought mythutil --setcutlist needed commas too.
chanid 1003 starttime 2017-02-19 20:58:00 recordedid 12844
Reformatted starttime 20170219205800
Running: mythutil --getcutlist --chanid 1003 --starttime 20170219205800 -q
Cutlist: 0-5520,5700-6124,22264-28684,45517-51933,66187-72636,94206-98946
If you want to reset this cutlist, after restoring the .old file
and resetting the DB with mythcommflag --rebuild, you could try:
mythutil --setcutlist
0-5520,5700-6124,22264-28684,45517-51933,66187-72636,94206-98946
--chanid 1003 --starttime 20170219205800
-but seektables from different tools have differed in the past :-)
