Hi Tim,
Its actually pretty easy. You need to open a ‘console’ (aka terminal) and run the following command

mysql -u mythtv -p mythconverg

you will need the mysql password (this is what you entered when you did mythtv-setup database section)

Once in, just copy and paste the channelplan text

I’ve always set the channel plan manually, one channel at a time, but this looks far easier. However, I’ve never used MySQL before and don’t really know what it is. Can someone please explain what I need to do with all that code to update all the channel numbers automatically?
Cheers

Hi,
I dont actually use the remote as I run frontends on dedicated streaming media clients on my Tv’s (or use the laptop) and they have their own remotes. I did have a go with it some time ago when using the server as a frontend also but didnt get very far. I did some digging on the mythtv home page and found similar cards from kworld are not supported in the kernel yet. It may be worth putting a support request into ubuntu via launchpad

Great Article saved me so much time,

Am just finishing of my channel scan now.
Do you use the little grey flat remote that came with the PlusTv DVB-S card? If you do it would be a great help if you could paste your lirc.conf

Cheers
