Bang on.  I'n not sure which parameter it needed but I filled in those
that scan gets from dvb-t/uk-SandyHeath and all is well.  The defaults
all used to work in 0.17 though.

I've been following this DVB rewrite since you started and I'd like to
thank you for your work in getting DVB / Mythtv to a useful state

Cheers
