That worked to get the channel info. My goal is to use VLC to stream 
live tv from my mythbox. I know this is off-topic now, but I have only 
been able to get 1 channel to play (Hallmark channel) when using the dvb 
capture of VLC, regardless of the frequency entered. I am not sure if 
that has something to do with the default channel on myth. In my 
testing, I have killed mythtv-backend, open vlc capture, selected dvb-s 
and entered a frequency from the list below, but they all play the 
Hallmark channel, so I know I am somehow getting it wrong. Here is a 
snipit of the results I received via the mysql query:

|        1 |   1523 | 51     | 51-13   | 1523     |     | 387012500 
|        13 |
|        1 |   1525 | 51     | 51-15   | 1525     |     | 387012500 
|        15 |
|        1 |   1529 | 51     | 51-19   | 1529     |     | 387012500 
|        19 |
|        1 |   1531 | 51     | 51-21   | 1531     |     | 387012500 
|        21 |

Anyone know how to configure VLC  to play each individual channel with 
the information I have posted?
