Currently I have the channel table populated with 32 channels as generated
from a scan of the DVB card. Is there a way to get mythtv to update this
table with the freqids for the PVR-250 card or should I just update the
table manually with the correct channel numbers? 

I'm keen to try to do as much as possible 'by the book', despite having
spent a fair amount of time hacking around with the database out of
curiosity. 

Thanks again.

Mike
