Yes - the two inputs have the xmltvid as they are indeed the same channel
- just from different sources.

I've now just tried to change the Rank of the tuner channels by setting
them to '-5' but the value doesn't seem to 'stick' - it always get set
back to 0. I can't find a 'rank' value in the channels table, only a
'recpriority' and setting that in the database still displays 0 in the
Rank field, there being no field labelled recpriority on the setup
interface.

Its looking more and more as though I have a crap database - I've already
got a problem in setting the external channel change script as no input
field is displayed for my pvrx50, as though its being treated as a DVB
card :-(
