scte65scan isn't exactly a scan-- not in the traditional sense.  It
just checks all the channels for SCTE 65 tables-- since these tables
are used to populate the virtual channel table of DTAs, which are SD
only, the tables would not contain the HD channels that are in the
clear, or even necessarily all of the SD channels in the clear.  They
will only contain whatever the cable company has decided should be
visible on these SD devices.

If you want all your channels, do a real scan, in Myth.
