Correct. >> I've set the freqid for the duplicate channel (BBC1, ITV1) etc to be the >> same in each source and that has helped sort out scheduling issues. Now BBC1 I don't think so. You've probably confused freqid with "channum". >> only appears once in the listings For the EPG only, if two chanids (the row identifier for the channel table) have the same callsign and channum, it will only show the row once in the EPG even though there are presumably two rows with the same channel and station from two different sources. >> and scheduling a program to be recorded >> from channel '1' (BBC1) picks the most appropriate card depending on The scheduler doesn't care about the channum field here nor does it ever care about freqid. It is the "callsign" field only that is used to determine if these channels are supposed to be carrying the same station and are interchangeable. mysql> select chanid,channum,callsign from channel where callsign='KVBC'; +--------+---------+----------+ | chanid | channum | callsign | +--------+---------+----------+ | 1003 | 3 | KVBC | | 2003 | 3 | KVBC | | 2123 | 123 | KVBC | +--------+---------+----------+ 3 rows in set (0.00 sec) In the EPG, I have one line for channel 3 and another line in the hundreds for 123. In the scheduler, for a KVBC show it could choose channel 3 on a source 1 input or channel 3 or 123 from a source 2 input depending on the ordering of the inputs, any input preference, any channel priority and which inputs already have other higher priority shows assigned to them. -- bjm _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
