Some difference now: I manually added multiplex id into channel table, Now
the mythbackend gets multiplex lock, but looses it and complains:



Why not use the channel setup gui rather than editing the database?



Channel setup screen does not have option for e.g. multiplex id. Channel setup does not fill anything for the last three columns in channel db. Nor does the mythfilldatabase either. I wonder if they should. By editing database directly I can change those, that's why I tried it.

Probably I'm doing something wrong here, it would be great if someone would
check the my channel settings against the url I have provided couple of times.



Looks like you didn't set the serviceid for your channels?

Do yourself a favor and forget about "mythfilldatabase --manual" and entering data manually. Do a truncate on the channel and dtv_multiplex tables and let the channel scan from setup create the channels in the db. It will automatically set mplexid, transportid, serviceid and everything else needed.

If you need to fix up the channels somehow (change names/numbers, add icons, set xmltvids, whatever) it should be perfectly okay to modify the channels afterwards but you need to let the channel scanner create them.
