well I know that in February 2009 or so then the local stations will be required to broadcast in a digital signal and do away with their analoge one but that shouldn't require any cable card to view. I receive them fine now. I guess if cable companies are ever required to go all digital then that might cause a problem.

yes they are turning over the bandwidth used for TV to the federal government, for "first responders". what you will need to receive local broadcasts is an ATSC tuner... I believe. whereas digital cable uses QAM.

* -80dBm to -20dBm (8-VSB)
* -15dBmv to +15dBmv (64 QAM)
* -12dBmv to +15dBmv (256 QAM)

fcc says that cable companys have to support the 256qam standard so the local channels should be on your cable network in hd as qam 256

now the question is does gbpvr support qam... Smile

Yes it does, but not via that card. You have to use a HDHomeRun or OnAirGT or an Hauppauge HVR1600 (selected models only).

Nope, as I said above, you have to use a HDHomeRun or OnAirGT or selected models of the Hauppauge HVR1600.

QAM tuning is not covered by the BDA standard, so each and every manufacturer implements QAM tuning via their own proprietary interface. GB-PVR supports those three devices because the manufactures have supplied information about how this tuning is done. Nothing is known about how the dvico or avermedia card QAM tuning is done, so its not possible in GB-PVR.

If you do a forum search you should find the exact details on which of the HVR1600's support QAM. From memory it was something like models 74021 and 74041.

I am confused here now..... I remember the following...

sub Wrote:There is no QAM support for the HVR1600 in GB-PVR yet, but it will most likely be added in the next release.

So I stopped trying to get it to work. Help me understand
