The issue he's having isn't doing scanning.  It's that a station, which
was properly set up once, suddenly won't record because it stopped
sending TVCT.  They *are* sending PAT/PMT but their PSIP generator has
stopped inserting any PSIP whatsoever.  This is a problem that needs to
be fixed at the station, but is typical of the teething pains we're
seeing now (as you know).  I think current DVB would be more immune to
this problem than current v4l because you do some caching and don't
necessarily need the TVCT.
