Bug Description

Please add Lithuania country to autoscan list (patch attached bellow :))
According to the Communications Regulatory Authority of Lithuania all DVB-T translations in Lithuania are broadcasted in 474-826 Mhz frequency range, see http://rrt.lt/index.php?-105647356 (updated version of this page in Lithuanian language: http://rrt.lt/index.php?-9827489 )
I've just tested with Me-TV 1.2.4 and found, that in my city (Kaunas, second largest city of Lithuania) autoscan works fine when I choose Finland, Spain or France

I'm attaching a patch for adding Lithuania to autoscan list to this bugreport - please apply this patch against scan_dialog.cc

I'm not sure if frontend_parameters.u.ofdm.constellation=QAM_64 or frontend_parameters.u.ofdm.transmission_mode=TRANSMISSION_MODE_8K need to be used - all channels in my city are found in any case - either I choose France (which has frontend_parameters.u.ofdm.transmission_mode=TRANSMISSION_MODE_8K) or I choose Finland (which has frontend_parameters.u.ofdm.constellation=QAM_64) or I choose Spain :)
If you could explain me (or show some weblink) what these parameters do, then I can try to search Lithuanian web pages about QAM_64 and 8K transmision mode (according to one unofficial site in Lithuania "64 QAM" modulation is used, see http://telemaster.lt/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=12&Itemid=21 )

Thanks for the patch. You might be surprised to know that I really know very little about how DVB-T actually works. I haven't used any resources to set those values. I've always just blindly set those values based on what's in the initial tuning files. I understand that this is not ideal but if it works for you then I'm happy to add your suggested scan range.

I now see why you are asking the questions about those tuning parameters, it seems that it makes no difference to you, does it? If the parameters that you've supplied work for you then I guess we go with those for now.

Added in revision 479 of the 1.2 branch.
