Just a thought (this is concerning the HVR-1300 only), but seeing as it
appears that everyone is having this problem, with recent kernels, and
it only needs to be fixed by commenting out those same few lines in the
source code, and recompiling. Wouldn't it save a whole load of hassle if
we were able to sorta have those 5 lines commented out/removed in the
first place, so that from then on, the drivers would work out of the
box, without the need to download and recompile them? Maybe someone
could contact the v4l guys and try and get it sorted? Just a thought,
please tell me if there's anything preventing that?

Bug description:
  This is a continuation of bug #436564. Please refer to that for relevant dmesg'.
  The capture card I have is the Hauppauge HVR-1300.
  The card is now correctly recognized as DVB-T but channel scan fails with message "Timed out, no signal" at each channel is scanned.
  The command scan <location> > channels.conf ends correcly and file channels.conf is feeded with all tunable channels.
  I tried to import such channels.conf with the same result.
  Increasing the signal and channel timeout in the DVB settings (now up to 1000 but I planned to increase to ignore) doesnt solve the problem.
  Tonight I will try what Marc suggested - mythtv-setup --verbose channelscan,siparser,channel,record - then I will report the log.
