Cool! I did not know that cable-card compatible tuners existed yet. I seriously doubt that it works under linux right now. I am no expert, but based on what I've read on this list in the past, I have some doubts that it could ever work, unless the interface to access the cable card is somehow reverse engineered. I think in order to be able to receive scrambled content, the software has to guarantee that it keeps file on disk scrambled and unexportable (similar to receiving scrambled signals via firewire, which is discussed more often here). Keeping files scrambled and unexportable doesn't seem in keeping with the Mythtv. Drew
