Yes, I was think of just the using

hdhomerun_config <id> scan 1 scan.out

or something similar.  That will create the file scan.out with a bunch of
information like the following:

SCANNING: 201000000 (us-irc:11, us-cable:11)
LOCK: qam256 (ss=99 snq=99 seq=100)
TSID: 0x0000
PROGRAM 701: 0 (encrypted)
PROGRAM 702: 0 (encrypted)
PROGRAM 703: 0 (encrypted)
PROGRAM 705: 0 (encrypted)
PROGRAM 706: 0 (encrypted)
PROGRAM 707: 0 (encrypted)
PROGRAM 708: 0 (encrypted)
PROGRAM 709: 0 (encrypted)
PROGRAM 710: 0 (encrypted)
PROGRAM 711: 0 (encrypted)
PROGRAM 712: 0 (encrypted)
PROGRAM 714: 0 (encrypted)
SCANNING: 195000000 (us-irc:10, us-cable:10)

PROGRAM 6: 5.2 COZI-TV
SCANNING: 189000000 (us-irc:9, us-cable:9)

If you know the channel and program id the channels are on, and see that it
is marked as encrypted, you are out of luck.

I think you can find that information on the prime by tuning to the
channel, and then using hdhomerun_config  with the get /tunerX/status (to
get the frequency) and get /tunerX/streaminfo (to find what the different
programs multiplexed onto it).

For example, with my hdhomerun prime, for channel 188 (local HD NBC
affiliate)

lash at mythbackend:~/hdhomerun$ hdhomerun_config 1310693D set
/tuner0/vchannel 188
lash at mythbackend:~/hdhomerun$ hdhomerun_config 1310693D get /tuner0/status
ch=qam:195000000 lock=qam256 ss=100 snq=100 seq=100 bps=38809216 pps=0
lash at mythbackend:~/hdhomerun$ hdhomerun_config 1310693D get /tuner0/vstatus
vch=188 name=WMAQ(NBC) HD auth=subscribed cci=none cgms=none
lash at mythbackend:~/hdhomerun$ hdhomerun_config 1310693D get
/tuner0/streaminfo
2: 190 WFLD(FO
5: 188 WMAQ(NB
6: 252 Cozi TV
control
tsid=0x0000

This matches up with the data above.  For an encrypted channel (TLC HD)
from the hdhomerun prime I get:

lash at mythbackend:~/hdhomerun$ hdhomerun_config 1310693D set
/tuner0/vchannel 176
lash at mythbackend:~/hdhomerun$ hdhomerun_config 1310693D get /tuner0/status
ch=qam:735000000 lock=qam256 ss=100 snq=100 seq=100 bps=38809216 pps=0
lash at mythbackend:~/hdhomerun$ hdhomerun_config 1310693D get /tuner0/vstatus
vch=176 name=TLC HD auth=subscribed cci=unrestricted cgms=n/a
lash at mythbackend:~/hdhomerun$ hdhomerun_config 1310693D get
/tuner0/streaminfo
13: 186 HBO HD (encrypted)
14: 195 CINEMAX (encrypted)
15: 176 TLC HD
control
tsid=0x0000



and from the hdhomerun:

SCANNING: 735000000 (us-irc:114, us-cable:114)
LOCK: qam256 (ss=96 snq=92 seq=100)
TSID: 0x0000
PROGRAM 13: 0 (encrypted)
PROGRAM 14: 0 (encrypted)
PROGRAM 15: 0 (encrypted)

Hope that helps.

Bill
