The menu seems to operate correctly, but I'm unable to tune to any
modified channels here.

An example of a modified channel is 
BBC ONE (TV):690167:C23M64B8T2G32:T:27500:600:601:0:2:4164

altered in accordance with an excerpt from Dave Chapman's info for UK
  para.Frequency = [Multiplex frequency in Hz];
  para.u.ofdm.bandWidth=BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ;
  para.u.ofdm.HP_CodeRate=FEC_2_3;
  para.u.ofdm.LP_CodeRate=[Unused for HIERARCHY_NONE];
  para.u.ofdm.Constellation=QAM_64;
  para.u.ofdm.TransmissionMode=TRANSMISSION_MODE_2K;
  para.u.ofdm.guardInterval=GUARD_INTERVAL_1_32;
  para.u.ofdm.HierarchyInformation=HIERARCHY_NONE;

I've tried numerous variations on that line but with no success as yet -
maybe I'm just misreading something.

I'm using Nova-t in the UK (Hemel Hempstead) and DVB-s 2.1 with no dish,
NEWSTRUCT driver.
