I am currently using a DCT-6200 hooked up to a PVR-150 via
S-Video. I have Comcast cable. I got the cable box so I
could play around with firewire capture, but I haven't got that to work
reliably, and my frontend can't handle HD, so there is little incentive
for me to get firewire capture working at this point.<br>
<br>
I am, however, still using the cable box because it gives me access to
all of the HD channels downconverted over S-Video, even though I only
subscribe to basic cable. <br>
<br>
Basically, I can only get ESPN by capturing the output from the cable box. <br>
<br>
I am using the 6200ch program to change channels via firewire, and it
works flawlessly from the command line, but it doesn't work for the 3
digit HD channels when i attempt to change the channel from with
myth. The error in the backend output is
"ChannelBase: external tuning program exited with error 1" <br>
<br>
All of the channels I am having trouble tuning to were manually added
after setting up the channel lineup at Zap2It. All of the program
listings on the channels are "Unknown(unknown)." <br>
<br>
Has anyone out there experienced a similar problem? What is the
exact syntax I should be using for the external tuning program
field, it is currently "/usr/local/bin/6200ch"<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
