I'm in the same boat with CFTO (40)9.1, up until a few days ago it was fine,
and now it seems MythTV cannot get a lock.
Here is what I have found:
* There were no system-updates done prior to this problem appearing
* In Watch TV, Myth gets as far as:
o "9_1 Signal 93% | (TLAM_V) Partial Lock"
* Another TV in the house with an ATSC tuner can tune the channel
just fine
* hdhomerun_config_gui works fine, and it starts VLC fine
Then:
* I updated my HDHR to the latest firmware to no effect (v 20110323)
* Updated Myth (now version 0.24-269)
* I rebooted (aka The Microsoft Fix)
* Did a channel scan again in mythtvsetup
Still stuck at "9_1 Signal 93% | (TLAM_V) Partial Lock"
