[mythtv-users] bad channels

[Bill Oberman]

I like that idea, but I can't seem to get the zap2it interface to play
nice.  

I get this message on step 3: This provider has already been selected.
Please select another provider.

Bummer :-(

will

The better way might be to set up two separate "providers" in the 
setup program. One provider could exclude the channels that don't 
tune well, that way Myth would only ever try to tune them on the 
better tuner.

If you use Zap2It, you'll probably have to create a second channel 
listing on their site, too.
