If you didn't get a Lock, then: could be:

mythtv-setup-> Capture Cards <for each card> Recording options->Tuning timeout:

I get 100% lock , if I exit and start from the main menu it works , but while in livetv and change channels , it does this timeout
I guess I could really up the timeout time
I was hoping for jpoet to answer but that has not happen
