Michael, I've recently installed myth 0.17 and used the tv_grab_au that came with it and ran into the same problem. I told the scanner the frequencies to look on, and it found all the channels, then I ran mythfilldatabase and it grabbed a whole lot of data. After ending up with a whole heap of channels in the "channel" table of the database I realised that tv_grab_au created it's own channels (without tuning data or channel numbers) that didn't match up with the channels created by mythtvsetup. In the end I manually edited the "channel" table, to put the correct tuning information (from the mythtvsetup channels) into the channels created by tv_grab_au and then deleted the channels made by mythtvsetup. So I ended up with the correct tuning information, along with the epg data for each channel. It was a bit of a pain but it's working ok now. Hopefully that will set you down the right track to getting your channels setup correctly.
