[mythtv-users] QAM program listings

Hi,

I'm setting up a digital tuner (HVR-950Q) to access the QAM signal from 
my cable provider.  This is so I can record one or two shows in std def 
for playback on a SD TV; all else I do in high def with an HD-PVR.

I'm getting a std def listing from Schedules Direct; there is no QAM 
listing for my area code  in Schedules Direct.  Then I added in the data 
for the QAM "stations" and put the corresponding xmltvid code  in for 
each (the SD channel is 13; the corresponding QAM channel is 66-9; erase 
the xmltvid on 13 and add it to 66-9).  Then I erased the std def 
channel from the data.  This leaves the data base with the QAM station 
and related info plus the xmltvid in place and the original std def 
station listing completely gone.

Then I run mythfilldatabase and it runs fine.  But I only get one day's 
schedule info for the QAM station (even though it has the correct 
xmltvid from the std def station).

Can anyone tell me how to get the full two weeks schedule into Myth from 
Schedules Direct for the QAM station?

Thanks!

Joe Henley
