Comment (by geoffc@…):

 On version 0.28 I am also getting this exact same situation with a TBS
 6281 DVB-T2 dual-tuner card. It was working perfectly on 0.27 (at least
 for a while until it "lost" all the channels and needed a reboot - that's
 why I updated to 0.28).
 I'm running Linux Mint 17.2 Cinnamon with the open-source drivers for the
 TBS card.

 I entered mythtv-setup and was invited to close the running myth backend,
 which I did of course. I determined that the Unknown Error was due to a
 "device busy" condition and suspected that the backend was nevertheless
 still running. I exited out of everything, closed the backend manually and
 reentered mythtv-setup. The card was recognized but a channel scan failed
 with timeout on all of them.

 Exiting again, running w_scan from a terminal found all the channels ok.
