Yes, I'm using a really old version - 0.24, as provided with Ubuntu
12.04 LTS.
With my quite limited knowledge on coding, I read through that twice
now. I'm still not entirely sure, which data in the database gets messed
up when I don't do a full tuned scan and where that data gets stored. My
preferred approach would be to fix it, second best option would be for
me to know what exactly I need to delete. :-)
Even though I could not find anything obvious in dtv_multiplex, I'll try
running my delete script again now, also truncating dtv_multiplex.
SDT doesn't appear to be the issue, as it worked until I did a fresh
scan. And it also works for all other programs from the same
broadcasting company. I'm pretty sure that once I delete the offending
data, it will work again.

Yep. :-)

They're all empty, but I'll add that to my script as well, thanks!
