When I had to set up my mysql db to merge my OTA HD channel scan with the channels from zap2it, I used a program called mysqlcc which made editing the tables, and looking through stuff a breeze. A while ago I messed with the QAM stuff, but I think comcast was messing with stuff at the same time, so I never got anywhere. best of luck. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
