I have Time Warner Cable here in Kansas City, Ks. I also have a Myth DVR<br>
with 2 PVR-150 cards and one ATI HDTV Wonder card. I currently tune the<br>
HD card using an outdoor antenna receiving the local stations in HD.<br>
This includes ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, and a small handfull of smaller<br>
broadcasters.<br>
<br>
I found out that if I use the Time Warner set-top box (a Scientific<br>
Atlanta 3250HD) I get quite a few more channels in HD at my current<br>
subscription plan. So, I want to be able to tune these channels using<br>
the ATI HDTV Wonder card. I have read the Wiki pages and been through<br>
the steps to "find" channels using scan and various scripts. They work,<br>
everything works, yet I have not been able to find the extra channels<br>
offered by the set-top box.<br>
<br>
Can this be done? Are these channels encrypted explaining why I have<br>
failed to find these channels? If they are encrypted, seems one could<br>
control the set-top box with Lircd and feed the video output into the<br>
MythTV box. But then, how do you connect this? The standard cable<br>
connection (downgraded video) sucks. Only connections offered from this<br>
box is RGBY and DVI. I don't know of an "input card" for this. How is<br>
everyone else getting this done?<br>
