On a side note, my cable provider appears to have recently (with a new firmware push to the STB, I think) blocked the HD channels from the firewire output. When I attempt to record I end up with a few hundred kb worth of data instead of a few gigs. Running dvbsnoop on captured output from an attempt at HD and an SD recording (which still works fine) seems to indicate that the HD output is scrambled - at least, the transport_scrambling_control field is set to non-zero values on a lot of the packets. If anyone is interested in helping me determine exactly what they did, I can provide the output of dvbsnoop and/or the short .ts clips :) -- Nathan Poznick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> "There's nothing wrong with me.
