I posted a bit of information on this in the pchdtv.com forum:

Basically, there are two tables you need to be concerned with,
"channel" and "dtv_multiplex". Channel has the basic channel mapping
info, with xmltvid, and refers to an entry in dtv_multiplex. The
dtv_multiplex entry has the actual channel frequency.
I modified the channel configuration in mythweb to allow editing of
the relevant channel fields. I will try to create a patch for that
tonight, so you can use that if you want. That would still not
address the entry in the dtv_multiplex table, which is normally
created when doing the channel scan.

I would like to get QAM working with MythTV. I am able to watch QAM HDTV from my cable
provider using a combination of dvb-apps, dvbtraffic and mplayer but scanning for the
channels using the latest MythTV cvs doesn't seem to work, i.e. it doesn't detect the
channels on the first pass and gets "stuck" on subsequent scanning of existing
transports. My understanding from the few scant threads I've been able to find on the
subject seem to indicate that my cable provider is not transmitting certain information
that Myth requires. I have tried calling them and speaking to the engineers but have not
been able to make much headway through the red tape, though my limited knowledge on what
exactly is missing probably doesn't help either.
However, I was wondering, if I have collected all the relevant info from
dvb-app such as Video PID, Audio PID, etc, would it be fairly straight forward
to manually add that information directly into MySQL? I am certainly no expert
with MySQL but I think I could figure out the relevant commands if someone
could point me in the direction of the relevant table(s) that I would need to
modify. But of course if someone knows the actual command that would be very
much appreciated as well. Or is there perhaps an even easier way than
modifying MySQL directly? Or should I not waste my time trying, i.e. a fix is
imminent?
Thank you for any help.

Hey Todd,
Thanks for the information and your help. It's been very useful so far
in helping me to understand what's going on. If you do get a chance to
generate a patch for being able to modify that information from mythweb
that would help me tremendously to not have to constantly dive into
mysql to fiddle with settings especially since I would have no idea what
to modify in mythweb or php to achieve the same result.
Thanks again,
Brian
