Description

I'm running Tvheadend version 3.5.116~ga2ccbb2 compiled from git and running in ArchLinux (Kernel 3.8.11) with a DiBcom 8000 ISDB-T connected via USB.

From some kernel versions ago to now I can not scan and watch tv channels anymore using Tvheadend. Whenever I add multiplexes for channel detection I get:

Tvheadend:
[ ERROR] dvb: "/dev/dvb/adapter0" tuning to "569,142 kHz" -- Front configuration failed -- Invalid argument, frequency: 569142857

Syslog:
tvheadend[ 726]: dvb: "/dev/dvb/adapter0" tuning to "569,142 kHz" -- Front configuration failed -- Invalid argument, frequency: 569142857
server kernel: usb 2-7: dtv_property_cache_sync: doesn't know how to handle a DVBv3 call to delivery system 0

Scanning for channels with w_scan and watching the result in VLC works without problems.

To make it work again, I had to patch my kernel with the following patch:
