<br>it, I had to completely ignore the instructions. I had to set it up as<br>an Analog card, not a DVB card. For whatever reason, I could not get<br>the analog channels to be recognized in DVB mode, even though the<br>
channel scanner said that the signal level was 100%, and the S-N ratio<br>was really high for every channel. I think this might be because I am<br>in Toronto, and Rogers encrypts all its QAM channels, even for regular<br>
digital cable. (CRTC sucks!)<br><br>The instructions say to configure it as a DVB card, and then there will<br>be a screen for you to configure the analog portion. You can try that<br>too, if you want. But after days of failures, setting it up as an
<br>Analog card fixed everything for me, and now it works great.<br><br><br></blockquote></div>Certainly not an expert on this by any stretch, but I have my pcHDTV HD3000 card setup for both digital and analog channels, basically using the standard instructions. I have Comcast, and I'm able to get about 30-40 digital stations, plus channels 2 to 70-something on the analog side. The digital stations are the local stations in both HD and SD, plus a few more. With analog I get the same channels as I would if I connected a cable feed directly to a cable-ready TV. Analog picture quality is pretty poor, although I haven't really played around with it much; there may be some adjustments that would help. Probably obvious, but you can only watch/record one type (digital or analog) at a time.
