Does anyone have a modified script that limits or only uses the 2 least 
significant digits that are sent from mythbackend to the change channel 
script?

The background is that I have ive seen that the backend is reqesting 
channel numbers like 1043, when i only need to send 43 to the ir 
blaster. My script works when only using 2 digits, but when i setup the 
backend to use it and switch to that input nothing happens and livetv fails.
I think the DTA goes nuts seeing a 4 digit channel, rather than a 0-99 
channel.
I based the script off the one in the mythtv contrib folder.
