Without knowing your systems history it's hard to say. The first thing to do is search through all the cron stuff. As root:
Code:
find /etc/cron* -type f -print | xargs grep mythfilldatabase
crontab -l
su - mythtv "crontab -l"

If that doesn't turn anything up, you can always try moving the mythfilldatabase binary out of the way and substituting a wrapper script that logs details of who called it (hint - use ps to get the process tree so you can figure out it's ancestry). You can even make the wrapper smart enough to only work between say 9AM and 9PM... E.g.
Code:
HOUR=$(date "+%H")
[ "$HOUR" -lt 9 -o "$HOUR" -gt 21 ] && { echo "Outside of allowed hours!" ; exit 1 ; }

Ok still on topic....sorta

I have noticed that although my database says the update is successful I now only have 12 days data not 14. Is anyone else seeing this behavior?
