My provider is Mediacom.  I'm using the Motorola DCT6412 box, but the 
driver
seems to support most if not all of the DCT64 series.  You want to use the
left firewire port if you are facing the front of the box.  It's been
reported that people have had problems getting the data if they used the
right port (again if you are facing the front of the box).

Once the drivers are installed for XP, you use a program called,
"capDVHS.exe" to capture the stream, and save the file as a .TS file.  You
can set the timer so that once you start recording, it will only record 
for
the specified amount of time.  I can play the .TS files using either 
Windows
Media Player, or a program called "VLC Media Player".  Though the Windows
Media Player seems to be more accessible.  One thing to consider, if you
don't have a lot of free space on your HD, you might run into some 
problems.
A raw HD stream with its audio can take up a whole lot of real-estate.

Blessings,

Brian

Subject: Accessing The SAP Audio off of a File


I'm now able to record the raw stream off of my cable box via my firewire
port, and play the recorded audio and video back on the computer.  Is
there
a way to access the SAP channel audio contained in the raw stream?  Will
any
of the major media players out there i.e.. Winamp, Windows Media Player,
and
so on allow me to hear the SAP content, or is there some kind of software
that will allow me to extract it out of the original .TS file that
contains
everything?  Any and all help, as well as input would be greatly
appreciated.

Blessings,

Brian
