Hi Joep,

Scanning with Kaffeine works for me now also :)

Ealier Livna repository Kaffeine didn't support
setting QAM128. It used QAM64 always
(HTV cable TV operator provides channel
information on QAM128 mode here).

I'm using kernel 2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 from Fedora Core 6.

I use the stock FC6 kernel as a base.
Then I install mantis drivers with

#make all
#cp v4l/cu1216.ko /lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2798.fc6/kernel/drivers/media/dvb/mantis/
#make install
#reboot

I use also Livna RPM repository for Xine and Kaffeine and for all other DVB stuff.

I use scan binary from http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Dvbtools

I installed it under /usr/local/
#ls /usr/local/lib
libdvbapi.a   libdvbcfg.a   libdvben50221.a   libdvbsec.a   libucsi.a
libdvbapi.so  libdvbcfg.so  libdvben50221.so  libdvbsec.so  libucsi.so

I have for scanning "fi-HTV" file:

# cat fi-HTV
C 274000000 6900000 AUTO QAM128

I have modified this by myself. The orginal fi-HTV
is obsolete and doesn't work for me.

You might get a complete channels.conf file from your TV channel provider.

So for scanning you need to know the following parameters:
One frequency: 274Mhz
Symbol rate for that frequency: 6.9 Msyms/s
Inversion: AUTO (this is ok for you too)
Modulation: QAM128

I use scan binary like this (librarys are installed under /usr/local/lib):

cd dvb-apps/util/scan
#export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib
#./scan -A 3 fi-HTV
(-A 3 checks both cable and terrestial modes).

You get help with the parameters with
#export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib
#./scan --help

Regards,
Marko

What kernel are you using Marko?

If I run dvbscan the second time doesn't find any channels.
It only gives filter timeouts.
I don't have a scan binary on my machine.

How can I watch TV channel's with xine?
When I choose playlist->get from->dvb
xine just locks up
