  I'm a bit confused that it's
  trying to access channel 0, since AFAICT there is *no* channel 0.

 'Channel 0' is usually the scan for new channels on currently unused
 transponders. The timeout means that this transponder probably doesn't
 transmit any DVB data streams at all at the moment. See Settings - DVB
 - Update channels - add new transponders.

 The CPU load problem may be a DVB device driver problem while trying to
 get a lock on an unused transponder.

That seems to have been it. Changing add new transponders to just add new 
channels means I don't see those timeouts anymore.

Thanks!

Brendon
