The update/rescan info is at the bottom of the readme file for scte65scan:

UPDATING MYTHTV WHEN THE VIRTUAL CHANNEL MAP CHANGES
====================================================
NOTE: More updated documentation on usage with MythTV can probably be found
on the MythTV wiki.
Cable providers are known to physically re-arrange channels from time
to time. If the provider is using profile 2 of SCTE-65, there will be
a version number associated with each table and this number should change
when the table changes. To update MythTV with these changes use:
./scte65scan -p -V your_VCT_ID -f4,2 itfile > myth-svct.sql
mysql [-u user -p password] mythconverg < myth-svct.sql
</snip>
This was a little confusing for me, as I didn't initially understand
what the "itfile" was. I ended up running:
./scte65scan -V 3065 -v -f4,2
us-Cable-Standard-center-frequencies-QAM256 > 20091001.a.sql
The "4" means this is an update to a previous scan (use UPDATE instead
of INSERT on the database) and the "2" is the source-id.
It does overwrite the select portions in your database, so make sure
you have a good backup of your database prior to doing any of this
stuff.
Best of luck!
Dave
