Sorry, I figured that statement would have been obvious. The signal coming into the box directly as an MPEG stream versus analog captures that aren't so great plus, require two boxes.

That's not what I'm looking for. I was asking if there was a card that does do this, legally which is why I mentioned some of the things I did. No big deal, I get it now, my only option is capturing and using an IR blaster to change the channels.

The receive is so crummy that even it's guide is off by one channel. I would have to find a way to have myth know about this.
What I mean by that is that if I'm watching a channel, I go to the guide and the guide is not only on the past hour but always one listing above what I'm actually watching.
