Some of my channels from the cable look very washed out and lack color. All of my channels look like this to some extent, but a few are very bad. For example Discovery, on channel 16 looks almost black and white some times.

If I tune to the channel in mythtv or using ivtv-tune the picture looks bad.


As I increase the frequency by 10ths of Mhz the picture becomes better, until I get to a point where I get some static on the screen.



Is there a way to tell mythtv that channel 16 is 132.3 MHz instead of 132 MHz?

There is a fine tune column in the channel table. You can access it via, mysql, webmin, or even better through one of the channel editors. These are:

Under MythWeb - http://YOURHOSTNAMEHERE/mythweb/settings/channels

Under mythtv-setup - 5. Channel Editor

Thanks. That worked. There are 2 things worth noting though.

You can't change the frequency of an existing channel in mythtv-setup. It must first be deleted. then re-added.

The fine tune field in mythweb is an offset in KHz.

Thanks again.
