Unguidedhello all. I have a couple of questions. My cable provider uses cablecards with switched digital video. can I record those signals with mythtv and if so what do00:41
UnguidedI need for the capture device?00:42
Unguideddigital tuning adapter and cable card adapter?00:42
mrandUnguided: The safest assumption is that you wouldn't be able to view any of the channels that are encrypted with cable card.  If you're lucky, some encrypted *might* be visible on certain cable systems.01:11
Unguidedso a cable card adapter like the ceton corporation or the new hd homerun would not work for me?01:12
mrandMy response more or less applies to any card using any free-ish media software.01:13
mrandNote that many cable channels are available without cable card (i.e., they are not encrypted).01:15
Unguidedok. thats what i thought. boy the cable companies have got us by the throat here in the states01:15
mrandyes, they do.  You can just hook your HDTV straight up to cable to see what channels you really have access to without encryption.01:16
Unguidednot many. i think only a dozen or so including those the government says they have to broadcast without encryption01:18
Unguidedi dont think satellite is any better01:22
Unguidedanyway off to eat talk to all of you later01:29
