please: (0.22) combine SchedDir lineups to single Channel listings for both HDHR ports

I'm having a hell of a time getting Schedules Direct lineups, scte65scan
discovered channels, and HDHR (dual port) configuration aligned.

Problem that I cannot get my mind around: Schedules Direct does not have a
*single* lineup that describes Comcast digital SD (expanded basic) AND
Broadcast local HD stations. Therefore I keep profiling two Video
Sources, one for each SchedulesDirect lineup: Comcast and Broadcast.

When I setup up the Input sources, I end up creating one match for HDHR,0
and Comcast and one for HDHR,1 and Broadcast. This functions but is
really limiting.

I would expect that there is a solution where HDHR,0 and HDHR,1 can both
source from a single channel list that is fed from some sort of hybrid of
the two Schedules Direct lineups so that I get an integrated view of
Digitized SD and Broadcast HD.

Regrettably, I seem to be too stupid to figure this out.

I feel like I need to manually add something to my myth channels or to
Schedules Direct (or....) yet I don't know how to solve this.

HELP! Thanks!

I'm confused about what you're asking for.

I'm assuming from your post that you've connected tuner 0 to a Comcast
cable and have tuner 1 connected to an antenna. Since these are
separate sources, they need to be kept separate so that when it's time
to record something on Comedy Central, mythtv can know it must do this
on tuner 0 as this channel will not be available on tuner 1. Given
that, why would you want just one lineup? In what way is this
limiting?

I think he has both hooked up to Comcast, but he is trying to schedule
the OTA stations, that Comcast is rebroadcasting, with the OTA lineup
and the other digital stations with the digital cable line up.

Dave, You should be able to find the "OTA" stations in the digital
cable line up. Just assign the XMLTVID from the stations in the
digital cable lineup to your OTA stations and you should be able to
just get away with just the digital cable listings.

This thread really belongs on the schedules direct forum.

If the digital cable line up on schedules direct is missing some
channels then report this to schedules direct and they will add the
missing channels for you. How to get this fixed is clearly laid out
on http://www.schedulesdirect.org/

Yes, I am only using the Comcast hookups. As Ryan pointed out, this may
be a gap in SchedulesDirect. I'm trying to reconfigure the OTA in the
digital listing now. Thanks, I'll drop off list to avoid annoying
moderators.

Not necessarily Dave, this should only go to Schedules Direct if
there's an actual listing problem.

Basically where I live over the air Fox is on channel 45.1 and if you
get it through clear QAM on comcast it also shows up as 45.1. But, on
the cable box it shows up on channel 213 and that's the channel number
that schedules direct lists as well. This Fox channel 213 is the same
channel as 45.1 and it's listings are the listings that should be used
for the 45.1 fox.

Not only that but the XMLTV Id's are both 21233 so the listings should
still automatically come in for the Fox that the channel scan picked
up as 45.1
