[mythtv-users] Channel scanning does not work / channels.conf can't be imported

Hi,

I can't use mythtv since I am not able to fill my channels table.

Environment:
Ubuntu 9.10
mythtv nightly builds: 0.22.0+trunk22974-0ubuntu0+mythbuntu1


I have three dvb-c cards (Philips Semiconductors SAA7146 (rev 01))


mythtv-setup runs fine. I can add the dvb-c cards properly. Just
scanning the channels does not work.
I have tried most of the scan methods. When I scan all channels (with
setting "Germany"), the transponders are found - but no channels are.

Then I have created a channels.conf using w_scan which looks like that:

RTL 2;RTL:113000:M64:C:6900:202:203=ger:206:0:12020:40984:1089:0
RTL
Television;RTL:113000:M64:C:6900:102:103=ger;107:106:0:12003:40984:1089:0
Channel21;RTL:113000:M64:C:6900:502:503:506:0:12080:40984:1089:0
n-tv;RTL:113000:M64:C:6900:602:603=ger:606:0:12090:40984:1089:0
Super RTL;RTL:113000:M64:C:6900:302:303=ger:306:0:12040:40984:1089:0
VOX;RTL:113000:M64:C:6900:402:403=ger:406:0:12060:40984:1089:0

But when I try to import it, I get the message that "%1" could't be
processed (something like that - the box is at home).


Could anyone give me a hint how I could fill my channels table again? At
least importing the channels.conf should work, shouldn't it?



Thanks,

Johannes
