Comment(by danielk):

 Can you try the attached patch?

 A long time ago it was reported to me that the cards with the "Philips
 TDA10046H DVB-T" frontend destroyed the CRC of their PMT tables and so we
 had to turn off error checking and risk crashes in order to support this
 card at all.

 However, a similar report was also filed about "DST DVB-S" cards, which
 I've  now tested myself and it does not exhibit the reported problem, at
 least with drivers produced in the last year. The attached patch turns off
 the "don't check and fly blindly" behavior in MythTV for all cards. If you
 can tune in channels at all with this patch applied, it will take me 5
 minutes to commit a proper fix.
