<DIV><SPAN class=339042017-02042008><FONT face=Arial size=2>Yesterday the Time
Warner cable guy had to come over to fix my cable. Channels 14 to 99 on the
cable box were snowey. Now i have an hd cable box, and i thought that all the
channels were digital, but i guess they are not. He said that channels 14 to 99
are all analog, and no way of getting them in digital.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=339042017-02042008><FONT face=Arial size=2>I asked him well,
what about your dvr's? Do they have an analog to digital converter in them such
as the pvr series many of us use? He said yes.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=339042017-02042008><FONT face=Arial size=2>Also, he said he had
hooked up a cable box directly to a customer's tv via firewire. The customer
then got all the channels he was paying for. I've seen many myth users talk
about how firewire for the most part is encrypted (other than the local
stuff).</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
