Sorry, but v4l devices only know about frequencies. Channels are
region-specific and can be useless as well in some regions. For
example, the frequencies my cable company uses have nothing to do with
the 'official' channel map for western europe. So you will have to do
some reverse table lookup to find the channel based on the frequency.
