As suggested by some of the links, I started looking for a
contrib/channel_changers directory but there isnt one. In
/usr/share/doc/mythtv-0.18.1/ there is a contrib dir and
some stuff in there for certain satellite boxes, so I will be playing.
Trouble is, it is not here physically and that makes it hard to trial
and error, but we will see. Thanks again, Peter
