[mythtv-users] adding new channels from schedulesdirect?

All,

I recently updated my cable package, and changed my lineup in
SchedulesDirect accordingly.  I am now trying to get those channels to
auto-add to my mythtv lineup. I've tried the following:

mythfilldatabase --do-channel-updates
mythfilldatabase --only-update-channels
mythfilldatabase --dd-grab-all
mythfilldatabase --do-channel-updates --do-not-filter-new-channels
mythfilldatabase --only-update-channels --do-channel-updates
--do-not-filter-new-channels

All of them seem to run quicker than I expect, and none of them
actually changes the list of channels available on my system.

Here's the last handful of lines from the output of the last run:

I've also tried the "re-add all lineups" link in Schedules Direct.

Can someone please help me find the magic incantation to make this
work, or suggest other debugging techniques?  A search of this list's
history revealed several similar problems, but no clear answer.

Thanks,
Josh
