[mythtv-users] HD Homerun Tuning Problems

Making the jump from analog to digital isn't going as smoothly as I had hoped...

I've got an HDHomerun and the latest MythTV installed from Axel's ATRPMS 
repository (non-bleeding though: mythtv-0.20.1-157.el4). There are a handful 
of channels that Myth doesn't seem to find. I know they're there, I can see 
them with the HDHomerun GUI tool as well as with the ATSC tuner on my flatscreen.

I've painstakingly created a list of all my unencrypted digital channels using 
the HDHomerun tool and have tried manually adding the missing channels back 
into the MythTV 'channels' and 'dtv_multiplex' tables.

Myth still refuses to tune them giving me a "(LAm)" message while tuning.

I've seen the notes here that Myth's channel scanning is broken. Okay, I'll 
add them by hand if need be. I've also seen the message that there needs to be 
duplicate rows in 'dtv_multiplex' with different 'sistandard' fields. I've 
tried 'dvb' and 'mpeg' in the duplicate row but mythfrontend still won't tune 
the missing channels.

Can anyone point me where to look next?

Thanks,
Kirk Bocek
