Hejsa Morten,

I'm also on TDC's Kabel network, also in Copenhagen (Nørrebro).

Also, here is my channels database (v. 0.14). I'm not using the standard 
grabber tv_grab_dk, but this should be somewhat of a help at least. 
MythWEB has a channels configuration screen that is great if you aren't 
comfortable with mysql from the command line or don't have phpMyAdmin 
(recommeded highly).

Correlate my info with yours for Frederiksberg kommune at:
