Sure - I appreciate that, I'm using the following which I've hand
crafted using the ofcom detail from:

<br>
<br>
Which is (without the HD multiplex which I can't use):
<br>
<br>
T 794000000 8MHz 2/3 1/2 QAM64 8k 1/32 NONE
<br>
T 738000000 8MHz 2/3 1/2 QAM64 8k 1/32 NONE

T 802167000 8MHz 2/3 1/2 QAM64 8k 1/32 NONE

T 754167000 8MHz 2/3 1/2 QAM64 8k 1/32 NONE
<br>

There are some differences with yours and so I'll try that
tomorrow, but from my limited understanding I believe that dvbscan
just uses it as a starting point anyway (but I'm happy to be
corrected!).

You will need to adjust the contents of your dtv_multiplex
table.
<br>
<br>
MythTV doesn't (as far as I know) use the 'seed' files under
<br>
<i class="moz-txt-slash"><span class="moz-txt-tag">/</span>usr/share/dvb-apps<span
class="moz-txt-tag">/</span></i>. Instead, it scans the
entire spectrum and tries to
<br>
fill in the parameters automatically. Furthermore, I had
difficulties with
<br>
it losing multiplexes with some of those parameters set to auto,
so I used
<br>
the digitaluk and ukfree.tv data to fill in my dtv_multiplex
table as per
<br>

Understood - and I do the same already based upon the output of
dvbscan.
<br>
<br>
<blockquote type="cite" style="color: #000000;">Note that you will
need to make further changes to the dtv_multiplex table
<br>
(and /usr/share/dvb-apps/dvb-t/uk-Mendip, if you use it with
other
<br>
applications) on both 28 September 2011 and 28 March 2012, so
put these
<br>
dates in your diary now.

Thanks again - based upon the info you've supplied I'll try some
of your settings and verify the configuration information I have
to try and find the oddity. I'll send an update with my findings
...
