I believe the devs prefer the first pass of these type of "does it
work" type questions to happen on -user first.

A Ubuntu-based user is also having trouble with DVB-T channel scanning
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/+bug/439163).  If we get logs, I
was planning on opening a ticket.  I don't know if more options
(channelscan,siparser,channel,record,extra) would shed more light on
it, but I think that something approaching what the devs would ask for
and is worth attaching that output to a new ticket.

Have fun,
