running MythTV 0.27 on MythBuntu 12.04.3 using a Firewire
connection to a Comcast DCH 3200 HDTV set top box. My
Comcast subscription plan includes STARZ. I can see all
the STARZ channels just fine on my TV, but in MythTV I
cannot tune to the SD and HD primary STARZ channels (in my
case, STARZP and SZHDP in Monterey, CA) in MythTV (I can
tune to all the other STARZ channels, all of which are SD,
just fine). On those two primary STARZ channels, I see<br>

otherwise I get a black screen.<br>

I called Comcast technical support and they had a
technician come out. I explained that it was probably a 5C
encryption problem (Copy once vs. Copy many), and although
he promised to talk to the guy in the Monterey office who
handles programming, nothing happened.<br>
<br>
Has anyone else had any luck with getting Comcast to make
corrections to their 5C encryption codes on premium
channels?<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>

<div class="gmail_extra" style="">Encryption is not your
problem, it is copy protection. Comcast policy is to copy
protect only premium channels and any channels where the
content provider requests copy protection. Believe it or not,
Comcast strongly discourages content providers from requesting
copy protection. Although some may get premiums channels
without copy protection, this is in error. It usually comes
down to the thoroughness of the local franchise to adhere to
the corporate policy.</div>

Time Warner is a lot worse they only allow the local broadcasts
through on the firewire and 3 other stations, none of the basic
cable is open on the firewire.<br>
