This is how I ran it on mine quite recently whilst fixing a bug in the driver (you might need to change the adapter number on -a): # dvbv5-scan -a 0 -l EXTENDED /usr/share/dvbv5/dvb-s/Astra-28.2E That bug was patched only a few weeks ago so the above will probably fail on some of the transponders. MythTV wasn't affected though so that should scan fine, aslong as all the other things with myth are setup ok - it's quite fiddly! Jemma.
