When I did a scan for comcast here in seattle on the hdhr only about 1/3 
of the channels mythtv-setup detected worked.  The 2/3's that didnt work 
were either audio only, opencable (need to svn up), or didnt have any 
audio/video output from the hdhr.  I ended up going through one by one 
testing.

There is a channel editor in livetv, press 'e', change the callsign, then 
press ctrl-p and mythtv should fill in the rest.
