Anysee E30 C Plus not tuning under Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

Asked by n00b4life on 2012-09-27

Hello, I'm not able to do a frequency scan with an Anysee E30 C Plus USB connected DVB-C adapter.

I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with kernel version 3.2.0-31-generic-pae. Anysee E30 C Plus should be supported in the kernel.

From dmesg I can see that my Ubuntu recognizes the adapter:
[ 14.964580] dvb-usb: found a 'Anysee DVB USB2.0' in warm state.
[ 14.964624] dvb-usb: will pass the complete MPEG2 transport stream to the software demuxer.
[ 14.964625] dvb-usb: will pass the complete MPEG2 transport stream to the software demuxer.
[ 14.965199] DVB: registering new adapter (Anysee DVB USB2.0)
[ 14.967084] anysee: firmware version:1.2 hardware id:15
[ 15.179332] DVB: registering adapter 0 frontend 0 (Philips TDA10023 DVB-C)...
[ 15.212706] tda18212: NXP TDA18212HN successfully identified
[ 15.776301] dvb-usb: schedule remote query interval to 250 msecs.
[ 15.776303] dvb-usb: Anysee DVB USB2.0 successfully initialized and connected.
[ 15.778227] usbcore: registered new interface driver dvb_usb_anysee

So, why can't dvbscan, VLC, TV Headend or Kaffeine do a frequency scan with the Anysee?

I should add that I have verified, using a Windows 7 machine and the same RF signal, that my Anysee E30 C Plus is fully functional.
