The developer posted a note on that story, as he mentions, support is
very poor as Fusion will not release information he needs to make the
driver work better.  It does /work/ but he calls if flaky and not
usable.

To note, the HD-3000 card from pcHDTV coming out in a few weeks _Will_
have QAM support, but QAM is only good if the stream provider is not
encrypting their channels, which many do.  

Second note, the HD-2000 is QAM capable, but no one has written the
support in the driver for this yet.
