[mythtv-users] Schedules Direct - two program feeds

[Steve Greene]

I figured it out. My .mythtv folder had two .xmltv files generated during
configuration: FIOS and broadcast. Each had both lineups listed.  I edited
them to remove the out of place lineups: the FIOS lineup in
broadcast.xmltv, and vice versa. Then I removed the channels and re-added
them.

My next problem is integrating a Harmony 650 remote with FLIRC. I think I
have the wrong Harmony profile selected as key buttons don't work: "OK" and
"Back". Any thoughts?
