The difference is e.g. in the PLAY command:

TVH:  Request: PLAY rtsp://192.168.178.1/stream=1131?&freq=346&sr=6900&msys=dvbc&mtype=256qam&specinv=1&pids=0,21 RTSP/1.0
VLC:  Request: PLAY rtsp://192.168.178.1:554/stream=1 RTSP/1.0

No Support / Interest for AVM DVB-C anymore?

Have you tried tvheadend version 4.3> There have been some changes/fixes to the satip code.

Yes, there is no difference
besides that the startscripts are buggy - they don't read the --satip_xml param from etc/default/tvheadend

We see in VLC Communication, that after the
0) Reply 200 OK
with the communication channel definition (client_port=x Server_port=y)

VLC opens the respective RTP UDP channel
1) 62535 -> 5001

before the command is sent to 6490 SatIP Server
2) PLAY

and the Stream starts afterwards
3) RTP + MPegTS

The TVHeadend Server doesn't open this Channel, so this is the error i suppose:

Hi, may just worth a try, when i still had the 6490 (im on 6591 now due upgrade but sadly no Fritz DVB-C currently) and the update came for 7.03 or so, i had to remove the --satip_xml http://192.168.178.1:49000/satipdesc.xml line due AVM added their way to announce SATIP now.

may just worth a try to remove the tuner and start tvheadend without --satip_xml http://192.168.178.1:49000/satipdesc.xml,

so it should find the tuner as SATIP Tuner in the network and then just readd it, worked here at least.

In your first post you have:

vlc = "freq=346&bw=8&msys=dvbc&mtype=64qam&sr=6900&specinv=0"
tvh = "freq=346&sr=6900&msys=dvbc&mtype=256qam&specinv=1"

which is correct???

Then second post you have:
"freq=634&bw=8&msys=dvbc&mtype=256qam&sr=6900&specinv=0"

You post results tested with the same channel in order to compare...

I tried this. Thus i added the 4 additional IPs of TVH in the same subnet where the 6490 is located.
But without --satip_xml TVH doesn't find the DVB-C SatIP server of the 6490.

Anything specific to configure TVH that it gets the 6490 SATIP info's ?

The channel is not relevant ... no channel works with tvh, all with vlc.

it wasnt here at least ... and the extra ip´s where also not needed anymore since fritz 7.x ... the 1 stream/ip limit should be also gone ... sorry, as i said i have no more 6490 here, waiting for 6591 to support dvb-c,
all i can say is i removed every extra i added for fritz satip and it worked "out of the box".

im running tvheadend in a docker container and it has to be in host mode to use satip ...

Got it working:

--> network interface didn't got packets from UPnP Port UDP 1900 (firewall).

Yeah -> now i want to feed my PLEX with DVB-C

xteve is a good start point, enjoy
