When you download your zap2it channel lineup in the Capture Card section of mythtv-setup, it should populate the channel table (I don't recall offhand what column 3 should be). You can get into the mysql database with "mysql -u mythtv -pmythtv mythconverg." Hope that helps.

No, the PVR-500 *IS NOT* a V4L card, it is an IVTV card.

However, you are correct that "Channel Scanning" is for DVB/ATSC only,
and not for "Analogue" tuning methods (Which should be getting their
frequency data from Zap2It/XMLTV)
