Hi,
i started to use mythtv the first time. So I now wanted to import my epg
data from the tool from Ben Buksch
(http://www.bucksch.org/1/projects/various/xmltv/), but first i needed
to import my channel data from xawtv. I typed in mythfilldatabase
--xawchannels 1  /home/mcsmurf/.xawtv. This created the channels list in
the table "channel" in the mysql db. Now i wanted to import the xml data
  from the tool with mythfilldatabase --file 1 -1
/home/mcsmurf/tvmoviefetch/all.xmltv (the "program" table was empty).
But this does create about 60 new channels and doesn't use the already
created channels, so that all the chanids are wrong in the "program"
table (and the EPG is useless). What I'm doing wrong here?
