I use scan from dvb-apps, the command is
"scan -o vdr /root/dvb/Astra-19.2E > /etc/vdr/channels.conf"
where /root/dvb/Astra-19.2E is file with "S 11567500 V 22000000 5/6"
I think that's the main issue. BOUWSMA wrote that its ok to rely on astra's maintainers and connect to any transponder is enough to get a list of all others. I personaly don't trust those maintainers since I saw too many errors in NIT messages that specify the transponder, so I specify all the frequencies I want to scan. I don't have a dish to 19.2, but there were many errors with 5 other satellites I have.
You can get a list of those frequencies here:

I use cx88-dvb driver but many modules are loaded with it see
http://kedge.wz.cz/dvb/lsmod.txt
I meant to ask what is the origin of the driver. I use Igor's driver from:
http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/s2-liplianin/
If you have a S2API driver (or will use Igor's driver), you can use my scan-s2 application with many changes in NIT parsing that might resolve your issue.

Scan console output is in file http://kedge.wz.cz/dvb/channels.conf
and the result in http://kedge.wz.cz/dvb/channels.conf
You've posted the same link for both outputs. Please post console output when you run scan with "-v" parameter. Maybe even with "-vv".
When console shows
__tune_to_transponder:1508: ERROR: Setting frontend parameters failed: 22 Invalid argument
the dmesg prints
DVB: adapter 0 frontend 0 frequency 8175750 out of range (950000..2150000)
It could be anything. Bad NIT message (most probably) or a memory smashing in scan application.
