[mythtv-users] Entering USA Cable channels into the DVB tables

[Curtis Preston]

I'm thinking you're right, and I'm thinking that with digital cable, the
freqid column isn't looked at.  I just haven't had a chance to test it.

Yes, you're right.  My example was for tuning QAM_256 on a cable service
(Cox in my case).  In that case, the frequid is the big frequency number
(e.g. 527000000). I'm still not sure if you have to put that in there,
or if you just need to put the mplexid in the right column.

I didn't know either. I figured that MythTV would use mplexid to get the
frequency from the dtv_mutliplex table.
