[mythtv-users] Cant tune SBS and Nine in Melbourne, AU with Hauppauge HVR2200

[Anthony Hill]

Hey Chris,

Yeah - thanks for that.

Helps somewhat for me too - If I set the channels up using the tzap or
transports methods below, then set quick tuning, I can browse / surf to the
broken channels. Still no EIT EPG tho. (making scheduling/recording a bit
more complex than I'd like)

Cheers.
