The instructions you quote above were really for NextPVR v4, which was a bit different. It had an 'add channel' button where you could manually setup a channel.
NextPVR v5 doesn't have such a button. You could still create such a channel if you needed to, but you'd need to make a fake xmltv file, with a single channel listed (called something like 'HDMI'). You could them import channels, and point it at this xmltv file, and it'd cause the application to create an HDMI channel. Without setting up a blaster, it'll always just give you a copy of whatever was coming over HDMI. As Martin said, you can expect a few seconds delay. (which is fine for people recording from set top boxes to watch later, but shitty if you're trying to watch live game play or something like that...look for other software solution for that type of setup)
