Hm, I can confirm these lock-ups with DVB-S, too. 
It happens very, very rarely.

Until now I found the following:
(1) The frontend is fully operational. You can switch channels using 
     vdr or szap. Frontend status is normal, but there is no picture,
     no sound, nothing. scan -c reports timeout.
(2) The problem can be fixed by unloading dvb-ttpci and 
     loading it again. It's probably a firmware issue. 
(3) There is no ARM crash., so the problem cannot be detected 
     by [dvb-av7110].
