If you have a usable channels.conf, then you have all he information you
need to put that into the proper myth tables to get tuning working. I
described earlier what I did, using mythfilldatabase and zap2it to
create the channels, then importing the channels.conf and then massaging
the database to merge the two sets of channels and remove the
channels.conf imported ones. I'm sure there is a "proper" way to do it
so that the channels.conf import layers on top of the mythfilldatabase
but I couldn't figure it out or didn't want to bother.
