[mythtv-users] Hauppauge WinTV 1250 not working

[Paulin]

Really...I thought that I read they were currently sending both out
(Analog/Digital) in preparation for the switch in Feb.   The
only digital channels I shouldn't get are the non-free ones.
Thanks for the info.  I'll have to do some more digging then or just wait
till Feb when they switch.
