Set your priorities
What does it do?
ChangeMythChannel is an application that enables or disables channels and sets the priority of channel in Mythtv's database.
I find that I use this application frequently and it speeds setting things up quite a bit. It is usefull since Tv providers have a habit of shuffling channels, and on occasion when the ota tv transmitters are temporarily down.
What does it look like?
Channel :
Fill in the Channel box with channel you are interested in modifying.
In this field, ChangeMythChannel accepts numbers and underscore only.
Priority :
This setting will weight the channel against other channels. For example, If you would like request myth to select a channel with better picture quality or with higher signal strength during recording scheduling, set the value above zero.
Channel Status :
Channel status sets the channel in the database as enabled or disabled. Once this is set your guide data will or will not show the channel respectively.
After use, you should run mythfilldatabase for the settings to take affect.
How does it connect to Mythtv?
The Mysql settings are set in the preference window. On windows, the data is encrypted as an extra precaution.
Setup is easy :
Fill in the location box with the ip address to mythbackend. Match the rest of the settings to your mythtv installation.
