It is there as MHEG5 - my TV sees it.  But the epg.org.nz scripts will
probably need to be configured to capture it.  I had not heard of the
new channel until you mentioned it.

That should be able to be fixed by changing the config for epg.org.nz,
but in the mean time you should be able to just specify the xmltvid in
MythTV to match the current "Canterbury Television".  Presuming that
spaces are valid in xmltvid values - I have not tried it as I do not
get those channels here in Palmerston North.
