I am in the same situation (TWC San Diego). In my case I'm using an hdhomerun. I think there is some channel data missing in the qam scan which myth seems to rely on. I can view KSND (1707) and XETV (1706) fine in vlc but not in myth. I also tried entering the data manually in the channel and dtv_multiplex tables.
Both channels are on frequency 627000000. This is the output from hdhomerun_config scan:
SCANNING: 627000000 (us-cable:91, us-irc:91)
LOCK: qam256 (ss=97 snq=98 seq=100)
PROGRAM: 1136: 0.0
PROGRAM: 1253: 0.0
PROGRAM: 1706: 0.0
PROGRAM: 1707: 0.0
PROGRAM: 1957: 0.0
PROGRAM: 1958: 0.0
In contrast, the output for freq 525000000 shows the proper callsigns and channel numbers for V-me (1311), KSWB-HD (1705) and KPBS-HD (1711). These channels are viewable in both myth and vlc:
SCANNING: 525000000 (us-cable:74, us-irc:74)
LOCK: qam256 (ss=96 snq=100 seq=100)
PROGRAM: 1001: 0.0
PROGRAM: 1311: 15.2 V-me
PROGRAM: 1705: 69.1 KSWB-HD
PROGRAM: 1711: 15.1 KPBS-HD
