I have Comcast and two pchdtv 5500 cards in my MythTV (0.20) box. Comcast and an antenna are the only providers I've tried. So far I've only been able find one true HD channel on comcast (KEUD-HD 7.2). I've got lots of digital SD channels (including Discovery and History). And a LOT of encrypted channels that my card wasn't smart enough to ignore even though my TV was. I would be interested to hear what channels other comcast/myth users are able to find. I might look harder ;-) FWIW, Barry Roberts /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
