Sounds like you didn't set the XMLTV ID for the channels you found in <br>
the scan, so when mythfilldatabase was run, it created new channels <br>
(that are not linked to anything) to receive the listings data. I'd <br>
recommend deleting all channels, scanning, setting XMLTV ID, then <br>
running mythfilldatabase.<br>
