<p>Could be this commit which changed the signal
strength range for DVBv5 :-<br>

<p>You could try starting the backend with --dvbv3
to see what you get with the old DVB v3 API.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Like other have said if it not causing you any
problems then I wouldn't worry to much about it.

<div>You are correct. Starting the mythtv-backend with
--dvbv3 does restore the signal strength to what I was
seeing on v31. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So what I'm hearing is by default in v32 the signal
strength is based on dbm instead of %. Are there any
problems using --dvbv3 instead of the default??</div>

<div>The problem I see with this new change in dvbv5 is the
screen display still says "%" after the number. There is no
way this makes sense to me compared to other tuners. Now
that I know I can follow it. but in a system with a
HDHomeRun tuner and a DVB tuner on the same antenna the
concept of one tuner at 100% and another at 50% is
confusing.</div>

<p>Unfortunately you can't compare the signal levels from different
devices like that they all report the signal levels differently.
Even DVB cards from the same manufacturer can report signal levels
differently. <br>
