<br>Matthew,<br><br>I can't vouch for which versions support correct<br>channel scanning but I can tell you what worked for me<br>with the pcHDTV 5500, after I experienced the same as<br>you (0% signal on all channels, everything timed out,
<br>etc.).<br><br>Use the dvb-apps (maybe you could use what came on the<br>CD but I downloaded the latest, dvb-apps-1.1.1-7.fc6)<br>and run your scan and output a channels.conf file.<br>The second field in each line is the frequency which
<br>you can enter into the mythtv transport editor. ("cat<br>channels.conf | cut -d":" -f2 | sort -u" will give a<br>list of frequencies) Once you have these in, go back<br>to the scanner page, and scan existing transports.
<br>This should work then to get all of your channels.<br><br>I originally heard about this from a post on this<br>list:<br><br><a href="http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/280120">http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/280120
