I don't think that too much has changed in the way Me TV does its tuning, but I could be wrong. If you haven't done already, are you able to either:

1. Install Jaunty with Me TV 1.0.0
2. Change to an older version of Me TV on karmic

This will isolate things that have changed in the kernel.

Another thing that we might need to look at is that kaffeine and scan check the driver capabilities for AUTO settings, if I'm not mistaken. Me TV does not do that, it takes what's in the channels.conf, but if the driver is telling us that the device is capable of setting certain parameters to AUTO then it would be great to use them. If this is the case then this is not a bug but a feature.

You could try setting some of the values in the channels.conf to their AUTO equivalents an see if that helps getting the scan going? If you have success with this then I'll definitely looking into implementing that feature for the next release.
