 No, i don't think so.
 The tuning to the channel (SetChannelByString(..)) has no success and the
 eit-scanner seems to wait endless for data.

 In some cases, i know why the tuning has no success, cause the channel is
 not available all the time. A good solution was to tune to the multiplex
 instead to a particular channel, but thats a major update (but a good
 start to refactor many device-dependent stuff out from tv_rec.cpp).

 But some of the SetChannelByString(..) errors comes from channels which
 broadcasts all the time, so it must be another problem with same result
 (scanner waits endless for data but tuning hasn't success).
