For me, TUGG works fine for renaming channels but not for copying them (using the channeldd command). This is because this command just creates a new entry with the same channel id but a different display name. I don't think MediaPortal supports grabbing channel information like this (as I could never get the cloned channels to show up using commands like:
channeladd
TEN
TEN HD)

Also: the external xmltv reader I have chokes on this configuration as well. I talked with the creator of TUGG and he said he will look into changing TUGG so it duplicates guide information for any channels added using channeladd.

I don't know if this is the trouble you are having, trying to get guide data copied using channeladd, but if you are then you will have to wait for a TUGG update (or a MediaPortal update to clone information with the same channel id but different display name, but considering this doesn't seem to be xmltv compatible, I think a TUGG update is best.
