Comment (by yeasah at schwide.net):

 I'm wondering if this is an issue with sending diseqc commands too soon
 after LNB power is applied -- the amount of time required can vary
 depending on hardware, and it's currently 500ms. Maybe give this a try: in
 the file libs/libmythtv/diseqc.cpp, change the line

 #define DISEQC_POWER_ON_WAIT  (500 * 1000)

 to a larger timeout, say

 #define DISEQC_POWER_ON_WAIT  (3000 * 1000)

 which would be 3sec.

 The above comment about the scanner not knowing about dish rotation and
 possibly timing out the first time still applies of course -- I'd like to
 fix that, but there's a lot of other minor annoyances I'd like to fix too,
 and the list doesn't seem to be getting any shorter lately.
