Comment (by homer_simpson_loves_u at hotmail.com):

 Its like a DiSEqC. Its a Legacy Switch 64 used in the past by a satelite
 provider in the US. Its fully supported by the kernel.

 Before I get to the log, I want to mention another bug. Sometimes when I
 get a lock I get black screen, data is obviously recording (hard drive
 activity), but nothing comes out of the front end. I don't know if its
 related.

 I captured a failed tune to Channel 213 from Channel 503. It took a few
 channel changes to get it to fail. Ironically, I wanted to make sure I
 could get 213 to lock and it took me a long time to get it to lock. I had
 to get another channel on the same switch input to lock and then change to
 213. However it does work, when it locks.

 I have several patches in place in the mythtv code to work for me. The
 Legacy switch patch is one and its rather simple, one is US provider EIT
 and the other is obvious so I won't mention it.

 I will attach an edited log (-v record,channel,siparser) from the failed
 to tun 213.

 Homer
