4. Used the channel editor in mythtvsetup to add a new channel. For channel/freq, use 666.</div><div>5. Changed the values of mplexid in the channel table of the new channel. In my case 666.</div><div>6. Chan table, Changed the tvformat to ATSC.</div>
<div>7. Changed the serviceid in the channel table row of the new channel to 2 in my case, see the printed out numbers above: qam_256:483000000:KQED-HD::9-1:2 <--- serviceid</div><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><div>
