You may want to check out Jarod's guide at:
http://wilsonet.com/mythtv/fcmyth.php#capture
Then click on the "FireWire capture from a supported cable box"

Please be warned that this method is still fairly new and can be buggy
at times.  I'm sure it will be developed and worked on though.  In
theory you should be able to record those channels, but I can't say
for certain... as I have not tried those channels.
