[mythtv-users] Shaw HD Digital Cable - Edmonton and Area

[Mark Hutchinson]

I have the Shaw DCT 6200 and the only connection I have is the  
firewire.  Changes channels, video, and sound.
I will be interested in how you make out.  I have a drop frame issue  
that I have not solved yet.
You will want to use SVN to get the proper firewire support.

Let me know how it goes.
