It seems pretty stable so far, as long as I don't use mythtv ;) Eg, all all the dvb testing programs and apps work fine, I just can't get Myth to deal with the QAM channels. I've had OTA working for 6 months with a different card, and that is quite stable. I just upgraded to the current svn last night, and will be trying to scan again with QAM this weekend, as I know people have been working on channel scanning issues. > allow me to ditch a Hauppage PVR-150 analong capture card and the > digital cable receiver in favor of the Fusion card mentioned above? > Phone: (919) 392-7363 | C i s c o S y s t e m s It all depends on what your cable provider sends in the clear. From your phone number, it sounds like you're also in the triangle area. In Cary I can get the TWC digital SD feeds for all the locals, plus their news14 station, WGN, some shopping channels, and CSTV. This seems like it is the equivalent to all the analogs < 25, or what you'd get for the basic cable subscription. I can get HD feeds for PBS, CBS, ABC, NBC, Fox, Discovery-HD, and TNT-HD (and Universal-HD, but that is supposed to be temporary). I cannot get ESPN, CNN, HBO, etc. When basketball season comes around again, I'll have to invest in an analog tuner.. :-( Drew
