Just wondering if you realize you can use the
"normal"/low/tunes-SDTV-with-the-UPnP-script channel numbers in MythTV.
All you need to do is set the frequency ID of that channel to the
appropriate 9000 number. Channel numbers are user-editable,
for-display-and-quick-tune-in-Live-TV-only data. They are not used for
tuning channels, the frequency ID is.
