Another way to do this is in local_conf.py include:
TV_CHANNELS = [
('2', 'DD National', '1'),
('3', 'DD Hindi', '3'),
('4', 'DD SPorts', '4'),
]
FREQUENCY_TABLE = {
"1", 188600,
"2", 188300,
"3", 188400,
"4", 188500,
}
The names '2', '3', '4' in the first column of TV_CHANNELS need to be
the same as your xmltv guide.
