This can easily be a problem in your channels.conf file. There are
2 possible causes:
- some onf the conding parameters like FEC or GI are wrong. Some channel
   decoder ignore them, the driver for the tda10046 does not.
- In some countries, the transmitters are +/- 167kHz off the center
   frequencies. With the current driver, the tda10046 can't lock with this
   offset,you need to correct the center frequency.

Good luck
