From a database point of view, you need to have added a new entry in
the dtv_multiplex table for the Sky transponder on 12707000 kHz. Here
is mine:

mysql> select * from dtv_multiplex where frequency=12707000\G
*************************** 1. row ***************************
mplexid: 16
sourceid: 4
transportid: 11
networkid: 169
frequency: 12707000
inversion: a
symbolrate: 22500000
fec: 3/4
polarity: h
modulation: qpsk
bandwidth: a
lp_code_rate: auto
transmission_mode: a
guard_interval: auto
visible: 0
constellation: auto
hierarchy: a
hp_code_rate: auto
mod_sys: DVB-S
rolloff: NULL
sistandard: dvb
serviceversion: 9
updatetimestamp: 2013-05-12 20:00:53
default_authority:
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

Of course, yours will have a different sourceid and mplexid.

And you will need the new channel in the channels table:

mysql> select * from channel where channum=95\G
*************************** 1. row ***************************
chanid: 3095
channum: 95
freqid: NULL
sourceid: 3
callsign: PRIME SI
name: PRIME SI
icon: /home/stephen/.mythtv/channels/prime.jpg
finetune: 0
videofilters:
xmltvid: prime.freeviewnz.tv
recpriority: -5
contrast: 32768
brightness: 32768
colour: 32768
hue: 32768
tvformat: Default
visible: 1
outputfilters:
useonairguide: 0
mplexid: 16
serviceid: 1056
tmoffset: 0
atsc_major_chan: 0
atsc_minor_chan: 0
last_record: 2013-11-13 02:05:44
default_authority: crid://prime.co.nz
commmethod: -1
iptvid: NULL
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

Again, you will have different sourceid, chanid and channum values
(and icon, callsign, name, recpriority, ...) from me and your mplexid
must match the mplexid for your dtv_multiplex entry.

I hope that will give you something to compare against to see what is
wrong.
