[mythtv-users] Rescanned OTA channels and Lost most of them

[Tom Bishop]

I am having the same issue, had a station change frequency and I deleted
and rescanned and all of the channels are available but I am getting no
guide data from schedules dorect. I really would like to know what is the
proper way to update channels when a frequency has changed and how to keep
the guide data intact, right now all mine say no information available,
sigh.
