</span>Why are you using a DTA? Something like an HDHomeRun Prime that<br>
directly captures the MPEG2 stream is going to be much higher quality<br>
(and more reliable) than going through an analog capture card.<br>
<br>
How are you using the DTA? I assumed an analog capture card, but<br>
that's just a guess. Is there firewire on it or something? Can you<br>
change channels over firewire?<br>

I've switched from the old analog DTA to the new digital DTA for my peripheral TVs and they work great.
