[mythtv-users] HDHomeRun HDHR3 Issue When Recording Some Channels

[Ronald Frazier]

First, have you made sure those channels are actually working? Did you
hook the cable line up to a digital TV and make sure you can view
them?

You could also try using hdhomerun_config to dump to a file. You'll
need to find out the channel number and program first (which you can
do with  hdhomerun_config and the scan option). Then do

hdhomerun_config FFFFFFFF set /tuner1/channelmap us-cable
hdhomerun_config FFFFFFFF set /tuner1/channel 93
hdhomerun_config FFFFFFFF set /tuner1/program 200
hdhomerun_config FFFFFFFF save /tuner1 /tmp/test.mpg

wait 30 seconds then do Ctrl-C to abort. You should have a playable
video in /tmp/test.mpg. If not, then something else is wrong. Once you
get it working with hdhomerun_config, then you can worry about getting
mythtv working (and I guess I'll leave that to someone else, since
I've never had a problem there).
