USB ID?

I'm aware of at least two variants. Suffice it to say that I have no problems
with mine (2040:7050) for receiving TV channels...

However, neither scan nor rb-download [1] work with it. scan always fails
with filter timeouts on PIDs 0x0011 and 0x0000, and rb-download always
reports "unable to read PAT" if given a service ID, else "unable to read
SDT".
