<div dir="ltr">Exactly as Duncan says is the correct way but I found some strange things happening here with this. I'm (according to others) rather odd in using Myth to watch live TV and when I did the callsign/name match it would not let me change channel (different multiplex) when recording even though one of the tuners was available.<br>
<br>What I've ended up doing was giving them the same name and XMLTV code but with the Freesat numbers +1000 due to some overlap, this seems to work rather well and lets me change channels freely.<br><br>Agree about the rescanning, not keen on losing all my painstakingly hand entered XMLTV mappings, which I did whilst muttering that I should script this so that it rebuilds automagically but as per usual constraints such as wild partying and an unhealthy interest in making cars go faster gets in the way... <br>

</div></div>I have 2 DVB-T and one DVB-S card. I just use the freeview numbers for<br>
all of them, and as long as the callsign and name is identical it will<br>
treat them as the same channel.<br>
<br>
I've also moved some of the +1 channels that are not on freeview down to<br>
more sensible numbers, i.e one above the normal channel.<br>
<br>
Only problem comes when I rescan the DVB-S card and it resets them all.<br>
I've been meaning to write a little bit of mySQL to do it all automatically.<br>
