I did a 'cvs update' and a clean rebuild and it showed up.  I had to add
the XMLTVIDs by hand (grrr) but now it works.  Mostly.  I have one
channel with 99% signal strength and 89% snr with a solid lock, but the
scan never finishes.  dvbtraffic shows almost the same info as a working
channel:

Does the scanner need the 0001, 13f5, and/or 1ffb PIDs?

I wonder if I should take this to the dev list?
