Youn need to have a .xmltv config file in /home/<mythtv user>/.mythtv
for each source. So for my FreeviewHD source, I have this file:

root@mypvr:/home/stephen/.mythtv# cat FreeviewHD.xmltv
channel=tv1.freeviewnz.tv
channel=tv2.freeviewnz.tv
channel=tv3.freeviewnz.tv
channel=four.freeviewnz.tv
channel=maori-tv.freeviewnz.tv
channel=tv1-plus1.freeviewnz.tv
channel=tv2-plus1.freeviewnz.tv
channel=tv3-plus1.freeviewnz.tv
channel=four-plus1.freeviewnz.tv
channel=duke.freeviewnz.tv
channel=edge-tv.freeviewnz.tv
channel=prime.freeviewnz.tv
channel=choice.freeviewnz.tv
channel=shopping-channel.freeviewnz.tv
channel=parliament.freeviewnz.tv
channel!hope-channel.freeviewnz.tv
channel=aljazeera.freeviewnz.tv
channel=te-reo.freeviewnz.tv
channel!shine.freeviewnz.tv
channel=firstlight.freeviewnz.tv
channel=sommet-sports.freeviewnz.tv
channel=tvsn-shopping-channel.freeviewnz.tv
channel=chinese-tv8.freeviewnz.tv
channel=tv33.freeviewnz.tv
channel=yes-shop.freeviewnz.tv
channel=apna.freeviewnz.tv
channel=rnz-national.freeviewnz.tv
channel=rnz-concert.freeviewnz.tv
channel=basefm.freeviewnz.tv
channel!georgefm.freeviewnz.tv
channel!tvnz7.freeviewnz.tv
channel!tv9.freeviewnz.tv

The = sign says to include the EPG data for that channel, and the ! to
exclude it.

You can make your .xmltv file like this:

root@mypvr:/home/stephen/.mythtv# mysql -s -N -p
Enter password:
mysql> tee /tmp/FreeviewHD.xmltv
Logging to file '/tmp/FreeviewHD.xmltv'
mysql> select concat('channel=',xmltvid) from channel where
sourceid=1;
channel=aljazeera.freeviewnz.tv
channel=apna.freeviewnz.tv
channel=basefm.freeviewnz.tv
channel=chinese-tv8.freeviewnz.tv
channel=choice.freeviewnz.tv
channel=duke.freeviewnz.tv
channel=edge-tv.freeviewnz.tv
channel=firstlight.freeviewnz.tv
channel=four-plus1.freeviewnz.tv
channel=four.freeviewnz.tv
channel=maori-tv.freeviewnz.tv
channel=parliament.freeviewnz.tv
channel=prime.freeviewnz.tv
channel=rnz-concert.freeviewnz.tv
channel=rnz-national.freeviewnz.tv
channel=shopping-channel.freeviewnz.tv
channel=te-reo.freeviewnz.tv
channel=tv1-plus1.freeviewnz.tv
channel=tv1.freeviewnz.tv
channel=tv2-plus1.freeviewnz.tv
channel=tv2.freeviewnz.tv
channel=tv29.freeviewnz.tv
channel=tv3-plus1.freeviewnz.tv
channel=tv3.freeviewnz.tv
channel=tv33.freeviewnz.tv
channel=tvnz7.freeviewnz.tv
channel=tvsn-shopping-channel.freeviewnz.tv
channel=yes-shop.freeviewnz.tv
mysql> notee
Outfile disabled.
mysql> quit

You have to edit the file to remove the notee command on the end, then
move it to the right directory.

Thanks for that Stephen.I'll check it.
I got the database sorted by doing a full db restore from this morning's
back up.

Cheers
