Close.  It's all encrypted, or else you would not need a cablecard 
tuner.  Encryption is not the problem, DRM is, and Time Warner marks 
nearly all their channels for DRM protection.  Since MythTV is not 
licensed by CableLabs, cablecard tuners will not allow us to receive 
any DRM-protected content.
