Are you keeping the PPV's and music channels in your database?  
I'm subscribed to just about everything Starchoice offers and don't 
see this problem with Mythweb.  If I want to record something on 
PPV or music channel I just select the channel with my Starchoice 
remote and do a manual record.  Saves scrolling through tons of 
useless guide data.  

o/t.......what are you using for a lirc.conf to control your box?  If it's 
anything different than the file at lirc.org do you mind sending me a 
copy?  My ir transmitter blinks happily away but it won't actually 
change the channel.  I'm thinking it may be the lirc.conf file.  
Well....actually I've got no idea, just grasping at straws :-)

cheers,
