I suspect MythTV can't currently access those
channels. The reason is<br class="">
the new channels are probably tuned by virtual
channel numbers.<br class="">
MythTV only does that on HDHR Primes. In
addition, MythTV isn't set<br class="">
up to use different tuning techniques on a
channel by channel basis on<br class="">
a single device.<br class="">
</blockquote>
The tuning and streaming method for these channels
is the same as a<br class="">
CableCARD based HDHomeRun, so at that level it
should be close.<br class="">
<br class="">
Other work will be involved as David points out.<br

<div>I experimented a bit with the hd config program as well
as the urls embedded in the web page for the tuner, and was
able to get an unencrypted stream from the tuner using the
following in VLC:</div>

<div>There should definitely be something possible here for
mythtv!</div>

<div>i'm pretty sure this will work for myth as it takes the
virtual number and http call for the hdhr. </div>

<div>i tested this a couple of ways with quattro tuner.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>i am pretty sure the mythhdhrrecorder from gary will
ultimately work. but it did not work for me. i believe it is
because when you update firmware and the new 'demos' appear in
channel list, you cannot make them favorites (the yellow star).
i think gary's recorder only uses the favorties as valid
channels.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>i also have a source for 'freebox' or m3u list. and i added
the local url to that and it is working. i am testing a record
now to see what the bitrates are etc. but the streams are only
30fps / progressive which is not something i would likely
subscribe to. if they were to offer 60fps 720p and a reasonably
priced lineup i would be very interested. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>so i guess for now if you have one of the boxes that is
getting these channels, follow the instructions in wiki to add a
m3u playlist source and just put in your local url's to the
hdhr., and set up listings and it should work.</div>

The lack of definition is concerning and I was going to ask about
it. Thanks for the information!<br>
Alas, another deal breaker is, we watch a lot of BBC America
programming. That is absent from their advertised lineup.<br>
