I used to have this problem when tuning to UPC Poland. I still don't  
understand fully how it works in MythTV...

Have you specified QAM? In my case there were two problems:

1. The field for entering Modulation is not always displayed, I don't  
know why.
2. I find nothing with Modulation AUTO, I have to specify it explicitely.

Hope this helps.
