| bobweaver | Hello there I am going to buy my 1st card for video capture card and would like to know thoughts on that I have read the wiki and seen the part "Hauppauge WinTV Go" are good ones if anyone has any ideas about maybe ones on newlogg or what ever that site is called. That would be awesome Thanks a bunch :) | 01:27 |

| tgm4883 | do you have a cablebox? | 01:42 |
| bobweaver | I have digital tv that is public that is it | 01:42 |
| tgm4883 | bobweaver, Most recommend the HD Homerun http://www.silicondust.com/products/hdhomerun/atsc/ | 01:43 |
| Zinn | [www.silicondust.com] HDHomeRun (US/CA) | Welcome to SiliconDust | 01:43 |
| tgm4883 | It was $69.99 on Woot last week :/ | 01:43 |
| bobweaver | what about anything that is less $ | 01:44 |
| bobweaver | just to hack at the unity lens and scope | 01:44 |
| tgm4883 | I have a http://www.pchdtv.com/hd_5500.html that works pretty good | 01:44 |
| Zinn | [www.pchdtv.com] hd_5500 | 01:44 |
| tgm4883 | it was abou $130 3-4 years ago when I bought it | 01:45 |
| bobweaver | thanks a ton tgm4883 ! | 01:45 |
| tgm4883 | I'd imagine it is less now | 01:45 |
| tgm4883 | bobweaver, yw | 01:45 |
| UForgotten | I'm still trying to get said hdhomerun that I got from woot to work in live tv | 01:46 |
| UForgotten | it plays sd channels just fine. hd channels, crashes myth. I can play hd channels in live tv on my pvr just fine tho. | 01:47 |
| UForgotten | so, I guess I can't do much in terms of mapping, the mythfiilldb appears to have found xmltvids for most of the channels, but not the ones without labels | 01:47 |
| bobweaver | ls | 03:01 |
| rhpot1991 | bobweaver: I'd get a hdhr prime if you are in a cable card friendly area | 03:52 |

| bobweaver | thanks rhpot1991 ! | 03:53 |
| rhpot1991 | most cable companies will give you your first cable card for free | 03:53 |
| rhpot1991 | but some like TWC put a broadcast flag on everything, so it wont do you much good in linux | 03:53 |
| bobweaver | I see is there ways around that like with cloning mac address? Dont know if that is how it is all setup. | 04:06 |

| rhpot1991 | yuki-onna: still have the same " no screens found" error | 14:22 |
| yuki-onna | i don't have another monitor wit dvi to test it with is the problem | 15:20 |
| rhpot1991 | yuki-onna: so it could be any one of these: cable, video card, monitor | 15:32 |
| rhpot1991 | if you can't work it out in the end you will need to specify the settings instead of letting it auto detect | 15:32 |
| yuki-onna | i have on board video on this thing, monitor wise i only have my tv and my new monitor which has some auto adjust feature or somethinbg | 15:33 |
| yuki-onna | i tried different cables | 15:33 |
| rhpot1991 | yuki-onna: figure out your tv model and let me know | 15:34 |
| yuki-onna | samsung ln32b540pbd | 15:37 |
