Re: [mythtv-users] Remapping channels
When you set up you Zap2It lineup, there is a screen that gives you the option to select/deselect individual channels in your lineup. It sounds like you need 2 separate lineups defined, one for digital cable and one for analog cable. Define the two lineups at Zap2It, then run mythtvsetup and assign the appropriate lineup to each tuner. If you have changed your lineup to correctly reflect the channels you get, you will need to delete the program data from your database using the mysql command line. Unfortunately, I can't recall exactly how to do it. I had a similar problem recently, and someone on the list was able to give me a solution, so searching the archives for my name, mysql, and delete might yield some useful results. Hope this helps. -chrisOn 12/28/05, Roland Roberts [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: First of all, I'm a newbie with mythtv.I've got it running for thepurposes of watching TV, but I haven't tried to record anything yet.I'm using mythfilldatabase to populate the database from datadirect.But right now, I've got my PVR-500 plugged directly into the cable *without* the set-top box.This means I only get the non-encryptedchannels but it also means both tuners can operate simultaneously.Unfortunately, it also means that all the channels are not wheredatadirect says they are Is there a way to change the channel mappings so the program guidematches what I'm seeing?regards,roland-- PGP Key ID: 66 BC 3B CDRoland B.

The two tuners are onboard the PVR-500, internally, no digital vs analog, this is all analog. And the issue isn't two different line-ups for the two tuners. My local cable provider apparently remaps the channels inside their set-top box. Since I split the signal *before* the set-top box, I only see the unencrypted channels. That's fine for my use (at present anyway), but it means the program guide shows channel 13, but the mythtv channel is 23. And elsewhere the guide shows channel 21, but the mythtv channel is 69. And the guide shows channel 1, but the mythtv sees this as channel 3. So I want a map that does program guide says X, use Y. roland -- PGP Key ID: 66 BC 3B CD Roland B.

Re: [mythtv-users] Remapping channels
I was thinking that you would use your cable box for one of the inputs and feed the cable directly into the other. Anyhow, you seem to be downloading the wrong channel lineup. The solution is to download the correct channel lineup.

I don't think so Chris The solution is to download the correct channel lineup. Like I said, if I feed the input from the cable into the card *before* the set-top box, the channels are different. And I don't seem to have any option from datadirect to map them any other way, which I why I don't think I'm downloading the wrong channel lineup. On the other hand, I am poking at the channel editor in mythtv...maybe this does what I want. regards, roland -- PGP Key ID: 66 BC 3B CD Roland B.

If you don't use the set-top box, then only analog channels are available. Every major cable company has different channel layouts for digital than analog. The problem IS that you have the wrong channel lineup setup for your setup. If you are not using digital, then change your zap2it settings to your cable company's analog lineup. Chris' answer is correct. -J ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
