Only the VDR-VNSI and VDR-XVDR addons implement the channel scan functions in the pvr addon. However, I don't know if it actually works as I'm not a VDR user.
The TVHeadend, MediaPortal and ForTherecord addons don't support it directly from the XBMC GUI.

I tried install vdr-vnsi and xvdr too, but I've a problem:
- with vnsi I get this error: connection refused
- with xvdr xbmc freezes

Add vdr-vnsi:
In case you are not running vdr and xbmc on the same machine, you need to add the ip of your xbmc client to /etc/vdr/plugins/vnsi-server/allowed-hosts.conf, otherwhise connection will be refused

Add xvdr:
In case you are running xbmc eden you need to use the eden branch of xvdr: https://github.com/pipelka/xbmc-addon-xvdr/tree/eden

Did you install the vnsi server plugin? If so, what version from which source?

BTW: I doubt that channel scan would work with VNSI. I have never tried this.
