[mythtv-users] Channel scan doesn't work

[schlimbo at gmx.de]

Thanks for the tip.
I tried kaffeine and the same thing happens: I get "tuning failed" when scanning. 

I have no idea how to proceed from here. Anyone have an idea what I could try to find the issue? Anyone has a similar HW-config?

Thanks

frank
