Help with Asus My Cinema PHC3-100

[sub]

Can you try adding "FORCE_ENCODER=1" to that section of direct.ini?

Thanks, that worked! I'm now getting a picture. I'm able to pause live TV as well. I'm very impressed with the performance so far. Maybe I'll try to get the digital side working, but for now this is excellent.

I'll go ahead and post my config for anyone else with the same card:

I see that the analog tuner for this card has been added to the config file, but has anyone had any luck with the QAM tuner? I am considering this card for my older P4 machine due to the hardware encoder for HD but I don't know if I'm adventurous enough to dive into uncharted waters.
