I'll assume you didn't go through the HD3000 process of manually editing the
mythconverg database.
here's a link:

I just went through the process (again) for 7738. I had an added issue that
led me to learn more about the process and makes me want to rewrite the
process, especially because of changes in mythtv-setup since Jason wrote his
original process.
If you (or anyone) find that the channel scan process doesn't pick up
anything, or the wrong transponder freq's (like it does with me) send a reply
to the list and I'll do my updated writeup to Jason's process.
