Below quoted from another thread:
Yes. Specifically, the channel scanner was basically rewritten from
scratch for 0.22 to fix a ton of problems in the old channel scanner.
A
/lot/ of testing was done by the developers to ensure it worked
properly
with the broadcasts to which they had access. Those who receive
broadcasts very different from the broadcasts the developers were able
to test need to help us fix the new channel scanner to work with their
broadcasts (rather than just complaining about change).
However, based on your e-mail address, I'm guessing you just need to
use
a different tool that supports the as-yet-unsupported by MythTV SCTE65
standard. See http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Comcast_Users_And_scte65scan .
And, yes, I could have suggested that to you even without the "New
Channel Scanner is really annoying" and "for cripes sake!"
complaints--i.e. if you showed a little bit more respect for the people
who invested a lot of their time to improve things (especially since
what's causing you problems, now, is not so much 0.22, but your cable
company's having changed the way it's doing things).

I did and install of openSuSE 11.2 and set up mythtv (0.22), but when
it did the channel scanning it choked at 41, normally we have about 65
different cable channels.
What info and where can I find, would be useful for debugging/opening
a ticket on the problem?
