Update

I have the TV working again, and I can browse to my newly added HD channels,
however it appears that my PVR-150 is trying to tune these HD stations.
Since when I go to Backend status of mythweb while watching TV it says
"Encoder 1 is local on mythtv and is watching Live TV 'Unknown' on 1130.
This recording is scheduled to end at 9:30 PM." and Encoder 2 and 3 "is
local on mythtv and is not recording."

How do I make some channels have to use the HD home run and others only on
PVR-150?
