[mythtv-users] DViCO Fusion HDTV 5 Lite status?

[Michael Freeman]

i have a fusionhdtv 5 lite too...here are my thoughts.

on #2, yes.

#3, no...those channel numbers have no logical mapping to what you'll find
with myth...comcast sends a special channel-you-see in listings and on your
digital box -> physical channel mapping table down via a proprietary means.
mythtv will find the physical channels but probably not the mapping
table.....you can tune through whatever myth finds and pray that you can
figure out what it is...but invariably a decent portion of it will be
encrypted (or maybe even all, depending where you are).

also, for one thing, i had to change part of the driver to get myth to work
with mine...apparently the driver developer hardcoded the driver to always
return a signal level of 0...so myth never wanted to tune in on the card.
comcast doesn't put much program data out (where i am, anyway).  one QAM
channel carrying hidef local tv looks like there's epg data compliant with
SCTE standard #54, but myth doesn't seem to know that spec. nothing else
seems to have data.
