I'm using OTA broadcast channels and getting EPG info from zap2it, and Hauppauge dual tuner. There were 2 additional channels I wanted (28.4 & 28.5), so this is what I did:
1. Went to zap2it listing and added the 2 channels to my favorites.
2. Ran EPG update to get channel info into xml file.
3. Rescanned channels on device 0 and added the 2 channels to the active channel list.
4. Updated EPG

Now, since I have 2 tuners, I wanted the 2nd tuner to also have the 2 extra channels, so I ran automap, thinking it would map the 2 channels into the 2nd tuner. But what happened is that it not only did not map the 2 channels to the 2nd tuner, it lost one of the channels (28.5) in the 1st tuner. See pictures and log is attached. How can I get the 2 new channels in both tuner active channel lists?

No automap isn't what you do to update a tuner after a rescan.

You got into the unscanned tuner, hit the trash can to delete all the channels on that tuner, exitand then when when you open it again it will ask you to copy the channels.

Assuming that all of your tuners are from the same source of channels, I've learned the process of adding channels goes like this.

-Rescan on the first tuner device for channels.
-UNCHECK all the channels you ALREADY HAVE on that tuner and leave the new ones checked.  Save the new checked ones ONLY to avoid doubles.
-As stated, then trash all of the channels on the other tuners completely using the trash can icon.
-Then, click on the empty tuners and respond to the suggestion that you copy the first tuner's channel list.
