You'd need to check the XMLTV ID for that channel in MythTV. There are
no BBC channel names called "BBC*LO" configured in the grabber, so I'm
not sure where that channel name has come from. Is this from DVB-T or
a manually created channel? Can you still successfully tune to and
record from that channel?
