That's pretty much correct.  The steps are:

1) You tell the mythtv frontend that you want to change channel.
2) The frontend tells the backend, which calls a channel change
script, which you have provided.
 
I provide this script...? Where do I get it? Also, my cable box uses cable out, so I'm going with that but in only inputs on channel 3. Meaning the tuner card needs to stay on channel 3. How do I make it do this?

3)  The channel change script either uses lirc to drive an ir-blaster
which mimics your remote control to change channel on the cable box or
sends a code via a serial interface to the cable box (if your box has
a serial input that is).
4)  Assuming the channel change script completes successfully then
mythtv will register the change and select guide information to match
the new channel accordingly.
 
How can it get new guide information if the tuner card is still on the same channel (3).
