    <p>Good information.  Now that I know my testing period in 8-2019

      till 9-2019. I should be able to at least come up with a plan.</p>

    <p>I use tv_grab_zz_sdjson_sqlite to grab my EPG data from

      SchedulesDirect.</p>

    <p>So I'd guess that when I'm told the channels change I can do the

      following:</p>

    <ol>

      <li>delete all tuners, video sources, and input connections.</li>

      <li>setup HDHR Quatro tuners again</li>

      <li>external to mythtv-setup, I can follow the XMLTV/mythtv wiki

        and initialize the XMLTV stuff like it's a new build</li>

      <li>Setup video sources like a new build</li>

      <li>setup input connections like a new build and scan the first

        tuner for channels</li>

      <li>edit channels I don't want to see in the guide</li>

    </ol>

    <p>Did I miss something?<br>
