[mythtv-users] DCT2000 cable box and mythtv

[Chris Teachworth]

 I've got a dct2224 with the local provider up here in Anchorage.
Initially I had trouble getting it activated but it sounds like next
week, after they do a controller upgrade they'll be able to activate it.
There is a thread with (I _think_) pretty much all the useful
information you're going to find on this topic. I've been working on it
for months now and haven't found any more information than that which is
listed here:

 The tech that is helping me is actually the lead at the cable company
so when I talk to him next I'll try to get some more information that
will hopefully help you with getting Comcast to enable yours. I'll post
the info to that thread. 

 I've started to notice the same thing, that people with 2244's seem to
not have as much trouble... not sure though.

Well, 
I have looked over more than a few mailing lists for the cable box set
up via serial port. I have
a motorola DCT2224 model with a serial port and I have not been able to
confirm the serial port (
labeled as DATA) can be used for my purpose. It seems to me people have
better luck with 2244 than
2224.
Anyone out there with comcast cable service and with motorola 2224
please confirm this?
Thank you all for any input on this,
Dan
