Did you set the xmltvid for the channel when you added it using
mythtv-setup?

Alternatively--with unscannable capture devices, such as the HD-PVR--you
can use:

mythfilldatabase --do-not-filter-new-channels --only-update-channels

followed by:

mythfilldatabase --dd-grab-all

and time the --dd-grab-all run and consider making it your default.

See

and
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/commits/449416#449416
for details about --dd-grab-all .
