Hello,
Just to say that I'm in france too and all channel get discovered correctly after new scan on april 6th. Htpc with tbs 6280 Tuner openelec and tvh 4.0.9.

Comparing a PCI dvb-t/t2 high end tuner that post people Will not be able to stick in their htpc with regular USB tuner brings not much to the picture: I assume some tuners work. Just I have two different that do not and the fact their work with kaffeine exclure driver problem.

Could you check, if you see the input (bandwidht, signal etc.) in the status tab with some known mux ?

With first tuner TERRATEC T5 Dual Tuner DVB-T Diversity, I have no transpondeur at all recognized. With same hardware setup, and using kaffeine, the scan discovers all channels and I can play them. Note that this tuner worked witha a previous version of tvheadend (4.0 era).

The second one (TerraTec Cinergy T USB Dual RC), I have 5 muxes working, playing channles correctly, not the last one, I have too many errors so it fails after tuning to the program.

I will not be able to debug any further before next week...

It is absolutely normal for TVH to show low signal,
on other programs signal 100/100 on TVH 75/75 sometimes worst.
Example: On DVB-T on some tunners with mummudvb signal 65/80 streaming without artefacts
with TVH signal ~40 streaming with artefacts on same box same tuner same antenna 1 minute difference

I think that the mux settings is not accepted by the driver. I've seen some drivers which accepts only AUTO values and others which must have all parameters set. Try to play with the mux settings.

Sure. This is what I planned anyway. However, the setup should be correct (comes from fr-ALL). I remember on the contrary that for the least working adapter, AUTO was not working (I found an old bug I opened saying that auto was leading to incorrect behavior).

BTW: what is the check box for using old ioctl for monitoring signal quality?

It is simple to use FEMON in monitoring mode attached to tuner to see when is locked /femon is part of dvb-apps/

Yes I know how to debug it. Just there are enough combinations to make it a lengthy process. I just wanted to say that, as far as I know, auto scan is not yet implemented (or at least is not proposed in the first install code) and that using dvbscan produced files (e.g fr-all) files does not work for me for two usb tuners whereas kaffeine autodetect does it right with my tuners.

Probably dvb5-scan would be working as well... Will try when back home.

Under "auto-scan" you mean to use NIT data
not some text files created years ago and never updated

No. Juts doing what any TV set does for DVB-T : can all the frequency and register the channels without using any pre-defined setup except the frequency range (think like using w-scan, or rather dvb5-scan) to create files that would be used by tvheadend as an input for channels detection or event directly channels).
