Remapping channels

[mvallevand]

My cable company provides HD and SD versions of some stations on the same analog channel number. As an example on the analog tuner channel 7 is SD and on the STB channel 7 comes out as HD for capture for the HDPVR. I do want to be able to record both HD or SD at my choice

What I also want to do is keep channels 1-60 as analog, and an analog.xml file works fine. If my HDPVR is recording 7 can I tell it that it is a different channel 7 and pick a different channel number? The guide info will be the same too, if that makes a difference.

Solved. I was changing the channel by selecting the device. But I found I need to leave it as "Number 7" "Source-Channel 7" and then import and on the duplicate in the channel list I can edit the channel number to whatever I want

I can edit the channel number to whatever I want

I had started to reply last night, but cancelled it for an overnight think. I thought what I was going to say was too obvious and as I don't use channel numbers here, just channel names, I thought I might have been missing something. I have a feeling (but don't really know) that some XML sources provide STB channel numbers for IR blasters - unlike here, where it is a very tedious job editing all STB channels to enter the STB number (and keep on top of it when they change).

It is obvious, I was just lost thinking I was achieving the same thing by changing the number on the analog device itself, which seems equally obvious.
