I'm aware it has two aerial inputs. The mini one on the side is
/dev/dvb/adapter0 (what MythTV calls DVB 0), the one on the end is
adapter1 (DVB 1) - it's consistent on my system, at least. I've only
got one aerial lead currently - in adapter0. Scanning for channels
finds nothing on DVB 1 (as expected) - and I also get no signal if I
use an already scanned channel. So I don't think it's that.
