[mythtv-users] Difficulty getting HDHomeRun setup

Hi.  A recent post suggests that channel scanning for
the HDHomeRun should be just fine in 0.20.1.
Unfortunately (for me), I seem to have an environment
where that is not so.

I am running the MythTV suite from the ATrpms.  My
installed release is tagged 0.20.1-157.fc5, which
corresponds to svn revision 13460.  I have been
attempting to setup my newly-acquired HDHR according
to the instructions as listed in the MythTV wiki.

When I perform the step to scan for channels (with teh
parameters Full Scan / Cable (or any) / QAM-256 and
-64) / Period / Delete), the process flashes a status
dialog quickly by, then ends with a "Scanning" result
window with nothing in it.  The only log message I see
from mythtv-setup is the following:

2007-06-01 22:36:20.597 HDHRChan(10111032/0): device
found at address 192.168.15.100

I know that my hdhr is up and running because I can
view programs from it using the Mac "HDHRControl"
application.

During this setup process I've stopped the fe/be, and
I've turned off iptables filtering as well (in case
firewall rules were a problem).

The manual scan, using the hdhomerun_config tool,
produces lines like the following:

...
SCANNING: 639000000 (us-cable:93, us-irc:93)
LOCK: qam256 (ss=93 snq=100 seq=100)
PROGRAM: 1: 0.0
PROGRAM: 2: 0.0
PROGRAM: 4: 0.0
PROGRAM: 5: 0.0
PROGRAM: 6: 0.0
PROGRAM: 7: 0.0
PROGRAM: 8: 0.0
PROGRAM: 9: 0.0 (encrypted)
...

Running mythtv-setup with the options "-v
important,general,channel" gives the following (which
I've abbreviated, since the channel-scanning section
is pretty repetative).  In this section I can see what
looks like a scan on the same frequency, but nothing
is found:

So, what have I done that's preventing this from
working?  Can someone show me the error in my ways?
