Losing program descriptions.

I've had this problem happen to me quite a few times now, and have previously just restored a backup version of SageTV. This time I decided to ask for help in an attempt to find a better way to fix it.

Periodically, I do something that causes the program description (just below the title in the blue box) to come up blank. It happens with EVERY program. See the attachment, and you'll see what I mean. As I said, the only way I have gotten descriptions back is by re-installing.

I am using a few add-ons, if that makes any difference: favorites lists, mini-guide, imdb search, and metadata tools.

Can anyone tell me how I get into this state...and how to fix it?

Don't forget there is a manual installed with SageTV. From page 117 of the SageTV PDF manual, where it lists commands you can use during video playback: use left/right to toggle the description display.
