I initially tried the V4L2 driver, but could not find any documentation for how to use it with QAM. I then tried the DVB driver, and I think it is working. Taylor's azap program reports a signal lock, but I am unable to capture any video even using azap's "-r" option. It is possible that all my Albuquerque Comcast digital channels are encrypted. Is there any documentation anywhere on using the HD-3000 with the V4L2 drivers for QAM? Thanks, John
