[mythtv-users] Schedules direct status incorrect in MythTV from mythfilldatabase?

[Erik Merkle]

I had noticed something similar when I switched from DataDirect to
sdjason/XMLTV for the grabber. Atthe time, I had found this forum post:
https://forum.mythtv.org/viewtopic.php?t=2995
So it looks like that setting the database is only for the DataDirect
grabber, and it's not updated for the sdjson grabbers.
