Hello Daniel,

When I tune to the PBS channel, there is only a black screen with the signal monitoring code stating "(Signal 100 % LaGv) Partial Lock". After few seconds, I start seeing mpeg log errors (as noted below). The mpeg2video errors don't always show up, sometimes I just see prebuffering messages only.

You need to set atscsrcid to 80*256 + 6 for this channel, not
16*256 + 6.

It looks like the VCT tables were munged with by the broadcaster,
which is why they are on 80 and not 16. However, I'm surprised the
channel scanner did not do that for you. Can you send me the logs
from "mythtv-setup -v channel,siparser" when you do the scan, and
tell me exactly which scan and what params you used. And also send
me a dump of the portions of the channel and dtv_multiplex tables
generated during the scan.

Hello Daniel,

Here are all the bits you requested. For reference, the satellite/transport info for PBS on AMC 3 is at http://www.lyngsat.com/amc3.html



**************** Action:

mythtv-setup -> 5. Channel Editor -> Advanced -> (New Transport)

Standard: ATSC      Frequency: 12110000      Symbol Rate: 14025000
Inversion: Auto     FEC: Auto     Polarity: Horizontal

Scan for Channels(s) -> Existing Transport Scan -> (selected the above entered transport) -> Next

Successful scan
