[mythtv-users] REALLY NEED HELP : Channel Scanning

[Folashade Adeyosoye]

Thanks, 

That's something I have also been thinking about. How else can I use the
HD3000 with analog cable? Which settings?

I just have basic Comcast cable.

Could have a look at http://www.mythtv.info/moin.cgi/DigitalTvHowto

But if you've got analogue cable, how's that ever going to work with a
DVB card which is expecting a digital signal? I'm no expert but that
sounds wrong to me.
