That's odd.  I didn't experience that with my HD-3000.  

I have a wiki page I can mail you a PDF of on exactly what I did to get the
HD-3000 going if you're interested.

Attached is a script I use that'll display a channel using the HD-3000.
Provide the channels.conf name of the channel on the command line.  azap is
all that's required.
