Comment(by anonymous):

 just looking at the multiplex listing after importing the channels.conf
 for Optus D1 @ 160E...  and worked out something rather nasty is going
 on....

 For ABC and SBS at least, the network information tables contain
 information not only for alternate DVB-S feeds, but for DVB-T feeds as
 well... and mythtv is picking up these DVB-T settings and storing them for
 use with the DVB-S receiver!!
 (actually there doesn't seem to be ANY DVB-S info in the ABC and SBS
 tables)

 Hence I get "messed up" dtv_multiplex entries!
 As the "Sky" feeds only have DVB-S information they appear to generate the
 right multiplex entries (but the channels get the wrong mplexid as
 mentioned above)

 Possibly there is something wrong with the way ABC and SBS are sending
 their NITs - although I see the validity of having the information there,
 but Mythtv also needs educating - as it already recognises the data as
 being for DVB-T not DVB-S, but uses it anyway!
