In your case there is apparently only _one_ NIT.
However, I don't understand why it doesn't work for you then.

In Martin's there are severa different NITs, and I haven't found
out how to tell which one is the correct one. The "ETR 211" document
states how this should be possible to determine, but none of the
criteria listed there applies in Martin's case - at lest not as
far as I can se...

Just an idea: in your initial channels.conf entry, do you have
NIT and TID set to 0? Please make sure that the last 3 fields
in the channel definition are all 0.
