Yeah, I got that much figured out in dvbscan (I upgraded to their latest 
repository checkout, they've apparently renamed the script).

I'm running into the same issues that others are, apparently (googling 
comes up with several unanswered questions about similar scanning 
issues).  I get a channel scan that finds a handful of named encrypted 
channels, often listed several times, but the NASA channel (seemingly 
the preferred FTA channel to test with) doesn't show up by name, and I 
know that I'm getting nowhere near enough channels in the list (I get a 
list of about 200, when lyngsat lists around 900).

I can't get myth to do ANY kind of scan, but I think I'll keep playing 
with the CLI tools until they come up with a reasonable list, so I know 
the card works properly.

I'm now wondering if maybe I'm missing a driver or something.
