[mythtv-users] HDHomerun issues - backend crashes

[Matt Emmott]

I just set up my new HDHomerun on my myth system, following the steps in the
wiki. I'm running myth 0.20.2 and I'm only using one coax input on the HDHR
at the moment. I'm running Charter digital cable in Massachusetts. I
currently do not have any other active sources although there is a PVR-150
installed in the machine.

When I run the initial scan for channels my HDHR finds something in the
neighborhood of 108, all of which it adds to Myth. It's only finding 2
tunable non-encrypted channels, which is odd because when I run the same
scan from Windows it finds five or six. When I launch mythfrontend and it's
tuned to a channel the HDHR can't view it kicks me back to the main menu.
When I try a second time it will kick me back to the main menu and my
backend will crash with a seg fault. If I can tune to an active channel in
the front end quickly enough, it will stay stable around 70% of the time.

Is the crashing normal behavior when tuning to a non-tunable channel? Is
there a way to get the channel scan to only populate those channels that the
HDHR can view? Here's a snip of my mythbackend log in -v all mode:
