<br>
One does not "scan channels" with a HDHR Prime and<br>
an activated CableCARD. One uses "Fetch channels from<br>
listings source" to download the cable channel definitions.<br>
See the directions at:<br>
<a href="https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Silicondust_HDHomeRun_Prime" target="_BLANK">
https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Silicondust_HDHomeRun_Prime</a><br>
(about half way down the article, at MythTV Configuration).<br>
<br>
Scanning for channels could work for Clear QAM<br>
channels, but Comcast encrypts everything (well,<br>
the EAS channel, a test bar channel, the channel that<br>
tells you you need to purchase service, and some<br>
local radio channels are not encrypted) in all but the<br>
last (few) legacy franchises, so that one needs to<br>
use the virtual tuning capability of an OCUR tuner<br>
with an activated CableCARD, and "fetch channels"<br>
from a source for the definitions.<br>
