I recommend deleting all of your DVB multiplexes from the Transport  
Editor, and then searching channels on each one manually. As you  
perform each search re-enter the Transport Editor screen screen to  
make sure that the correct values have been loaded for each multiplec.

This is a reference for DVB-S but should apply for DVB-T

I've found in auckland that MythTV sometimes puts the  wrong  
information in the database.
