* Useful to run it as mythtvsetup --geometry 1024x720 so that you can see the messages in the launch window in the background (assuming your screen is larger than 1024x720)
* When connecting a source to an input (e.g. comcast to an HDHomeRun in my case), fetch channels from listing source only works *after* scanning for channels first
* The database is mythconverg and the user and password are both mythtv
* You have to explicitly tell Myth to add digital channels to the DB since they're almost always unusable without a scan
* Comcast seems to be rolling out SCTE channels
* I recommend reading (the /entire/ thread at): http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/382657#382657
