Hello, another EPG-related problem. I've one DVB-S card with two inputs (two LNBs, one Astra 19, the other Astra 28). I've scanned them in mythtv-setup, and then modified each channel's callsign, channelnumber and xmltvid manually, in the screen provided.
In the database table "channel", this looks like this: chanid 2062 channum 3 <== modified by me freqid NULL sourceid 2 callsign 3sat <== modified by me name 3sat icon none finetune NULL videofilters xmltvid C3sat.de <== modified by me recpriority 0 contrast 32768 brightness 32768 colour 32768 hue 32768 tvformat Default commfree 1 visible 1 outputfilters useonairguide 1 mplexid 16 serviceid 28007 atscsrcid 0 I'm using tv_grab_de_tvtoday and tv_grab_uk_rt in favour over tv_dvb_grab because they seem richer both in the number of days and the information for each programme provided. The xmltvid values are taken from the output of a tv_grab_de_tvtoday and uk_rt, respectively. My hunch was that the mythfilldatabase will try to find channels which have xmltvids it knows about, and associate these channels with the programmes it's importing. However, after having run mythfilldatabase, I find another line in the channel table, like this: chanid 1138 <== where does this value come from? channum 3 freqid sourceid 2 callsign 1138 name 3SAT icon /home/mythtv/.mythtv/channels/3sat.gif finetune 0 videofilters xmltvid C3sat.de recpriority 0 contrast 32768 brightness 32768 colour 32768 hue 32768 tvformat Default commfree 0 visible 1 outputfilters useonairguide 0 mplexid NULL serviceid NULL atscsrcid NULL How does mythfilldatabase work? And how can I "merge" these two channels (automatically, of course, I wouldn't want to do it manually for each mythfilldatabase run) into one? -- cheers, Jakob. _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
