2965	ATSC QAM256 channels fail to tune (partial lock) that are working channels with xine and vlc	Wylie Swanson <wylie.swanson@…>	danielk	"
MythTV gets partial lock on (good working) channels.  The same channels are viewable Xine (in case with Air2PC) and with VLC  (with HDHomeRun).  I suppose it is how my cable company is broadcasting, but the streams can be viewed.  There has been some discussion about this on HDHomeRun forum.

I added a HDHomeRun to my environment today.  About six months ago on my Air2PC (ATSC/QAM256 cable), I noticed Partial Lock (no audio/video) on a few channels that had previously worked (SVN mid-to-early 2006).  

Today, with HDHomeRun, I am seeing the same thing.  Mythtv-setup can sometimes find all of the important channels (and a bunch of channels that don't matter).  However, mythfrontend shows partial lock in the tuning phase.  There was a patch around the 17th that was a significant improvement, but the mythfrontend still gets partial lock.  

From reading the forums, SageTV does not have the same problem (of course, there is no way I am switching from MythTV!).  For me, the channels can be viewed from xine on the Air2PC and using vlc for the HDHomeRun.

I am happy to provide more diagnostic (and quickly).  Let me know what information would be helpful (e.g. cmdlines for mythfrontend or backend with relevant diag).  For the record, I have Cox Cable in Phoenix, Arizona.
