Some more experiments with mediaclient.
If I stop mediaclient and configure manually with mediaclient, I get:
# /opt/bin/mediaclient -m DVBC -f 506000000 -S 6900000 -M Q256
Using device: /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0
Checking for lock:
. [LOCKED]
# /opt/bin/mediaclient --readsignal=10 -d /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0

When tvheadend is running, there is always "LOCKED: NO" and mediaclient does not get any scan data:

Not sure, if that means anything important. It is clear, however, that there are channels on these frequencies and the signal strength is not bad either. So why don't I get anything in tvheadend?
