1. Delete all your channels
2. run a full scan, [ this will re-create the channels ]
Is this a DVB scan? Also don't I have to enter the first channel manualy?

then log on to the database and execute the SQL below (adjust the bbc and
itv ids if you're not in London)
that'll get you most of the way (you'll have to create the logos of
course. You can download the animated gifs from the frontpage of
www.freeview.org and split them up using the GIMP.
Your goal is that this:
select count(*) from channel where xmltvid is null or xmltvid = ''
returns 0
If you have an id in your <whatever>.xmltv file that's not in the DB
you'll get a new channel created when you run mythfilldatabase, so make
sure that the .xmltv file and the database are 'in sync'
