It's been a while from this answer.
Since then, I have tried to scan the channels several times, from
mythtv-setup and with the dvbtools.
scan and w_scan find the same channels, and all those who are provided
fta are there.
mythtv-setup misses some transports completely.
I will try to insert the missing transports in the 'dtv_multiplex' table
manually, and the scan again from mythtv-setup.
But there are several columns in the 'dtv_table', for which I don't know
the value to insert. These are 'mplexid' and 'transportid'. How can I
find out the appropriate values for those fields ? They are not in the
'channels.conf' file generated with scan or w_scan.
Thanks and regards
Yann
