Everytime I looked at the the schedules in mythtv I had gotten from Schedules Direct, They were scrambled. The titles and the times would be correct, but the description did NOT match the programme. I contacted Schedules Direct and found out about something called EIT. Event Information Table. EIT is part of the ATSC standard.
EIT information is transmitted along with the programme from over-the-air broadcasts. The effect is, the EIT information “updates/replaces/clobbers/fubars” the information already present from Schedules Direct, and scrambles the schedule listing.
If you are getting scheduling information from Schedules Direct you need to disable/uncheck the scan in mythtv-setup, Video Sources.
Your screen should look like:
Many thanks to Robert K. from Schedules Direct.
