I never got QAM working (Air2PC card, so the frequency locking problem hit, making the card useless for me). I'm using the firewire for capture these days, and since I recently moved, I didn't bother hooking my PVR-250 back into the cable - I've been letting the firewire port record everything. On long HDTV captures, I get some hiccups on occasion but they're never long - just momentary pixelations. I don't recall having any problems at all with the SDTV channels. The sound volume on HDTV recordings for me is too low, but then again it's quite low when I tune it in and watch it through my TV normally (so I think it's just a general issue with my cable company). It's nothing that cranking up the volume can't fix however. -- Nathan Poznick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Today I was arrested for scalping low numbers at the deli. I sold a #3 for 28 bucks. -Stephen Wright
