And if Steve has checked all this and it's still not working, I would 
suggest to Steve that he try running mythfilldatabase from the command 
line on his backend server.  It might be helpful to run it with an 
option like --refresh-all, and see if that fixes it, or if maybe an 
error message appears that explains what's going on.  He could even try 
the --sourceid option to populate only the schedule that doesn't seem to 
be populated.  He could also use the --help option of mythfilldatabase 
to see if any other options might be useful in his troubleshooting.

Steve, if you already replied to this, sorry I missed it.  My e-mail 
client sometimes doesn't properly display all the posts from this list, 
especially the ones where people top-post their replies. :-)
