How to update channels for HDHR scanned from scte65scan?

I'm pretty sure some of my Comcast channels are changing frequencies -
Comcast must be tuning up for the new broadcast seasons.

What's the correct procedure to rescan and re-apply the channel
information via scte65scan so that the new freq's can be added?

I don't mind doing manual updates in mysql since there are only a few to
update, however I'm nervous about mucking with the tables without an
example. THANKS!

How did you get scte65scan?
I've tried to "make" this for HDHR and UB 10.4 and 9.10 and
still get lots of errors even after applying the fixes.
So I guess that I'm even one step behind you.

I haven't compiled it more times than what I required so that I'd have
enuf expertise to update the main wiki page

Then modify the Makefile.hdhr file to fix a few things. First, add the
following line near the top:

LIBOBJS += $(HDHR_DIR)/hdhomerun_sock_posix.o $(HDHR_DIR)/hdhomerun_os_posix.o

I think that it is this line that is killing me:
///
LIBOBJS += $(HDHR_DIR)/hdhomerun_sock_posix.o $(HDHR_DIR)/hdhomerun_os_posix.o //////
---------------------- don't seem to have this anywhere and
the ( libhdhomerun ) make seems to make it and then clean it.
Also what does it want in the $(HDHR_DIR)?

I will say that although I've written thousands of lines of C code, my skills are getting rusty.

OK, so I took a backup and started working through the issues. Turns out,
I only had two channels that needed to be fixed and the fixes weren't too
difficult.

Since I've asked this question twice on this list, I wanted to (verbosely)
document what I did to fix my cases.

http://mymyttv.webs.com/apps/blog/show/4714303-mythtv-scte65scan-updating-existing-channel-frequencies

Someone with a better understanding of what this meant might be able to
condense this to a WIKI page on Mythtv. Or, someone could contact me
offline with comments on how to better update this and I'll try the Wiki
page myself.

Constructive comments appreciated!!!! thanks.
