Thanks for the info.
I'm still a bit unclear as to how you generate your config file.

DVB-T terrestrial right? I have a pcHDTV I figure I would be using DVB-C or
S???

Ok I think I'm missing a step.

SO you strat with a channel.conf file from something like
make_atsc_chanconf.pl (since I'm using cable I have a corrected.qam file.
Entries are like this
KING:677000000:8VSB:0:0
-snip-

This info allows for you to run azap which will tune to the channel.
Using dvbscan -c I get an output like this

root at mythtv:~/.tzap# dvbscan -c
using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0'
dumping lists (10 services)
[0009]                   (0x0009) 00: PCR == V   V 0x0800 A 0x0801 (eng)
-snip-

So how do you get to your format?
