That seems to be what was causing it. I changed to --hours 335 and it
worked, plus MythTV is now reporting 14 days of data again.

> Just an observation: asking for 14 days data every day is a bit overkill IMO. I usually get 'today' + the next 3 days to catch any last minute changes to schedules, plus the 'new' day in the future (e.g. day 14). The schedule in between rarely changes and you risk being chastised by MetaBroadcast if you fetch too much data for too many channels too often.

Yes, I see the sense in that. How do you do it? I'd guess, call twice,
once with --days 4, and again with --days 1 --offset 13, concatenating
the data. Is that right?

The only worry, is I thought I had noticed changes fairly often, not
so much changed times, as details filled in as the time of airing
comes closer. Maybe I imagined it.
