Hello,
I'm using a Sundtek MediaTV Digital Home III (EU) with DVB-C (Ziggo, Netherlands) and TVHeadend. With this combination I can watch channels which use QAM64 with no problems, but I cannot watch channels with QAM256.
When I open QAM256 channels I get Continuity counter errors and Transport error indicators in the TVHeadend log file.

When I check the signal level of the MediaTV it looks okay, no errors there:

Maybe you can tell me if this is a issue with the Sundtek DVC-C stick or do I need to dive into TVHeadend for this problem ?
