So should i disable the firewall then attempt to do everything over again then let you guys know how it turns out?

Yes, you should disable the firewall.

However, to my knowledge the HVR-850 does not have a QAM (digital cable) tuner. Or are you trying to tune Analog cable? If so you need to install WinTV7 first to get the needed SoftPVR components; then the 850 will show up as an analog capture source as well.

I am trying to tune in analog cable i still have all the WinTV stuff still installed so i think i have that covered. i will let you know in a few minutes

I am trying to tune in analog cable...

The logs you posted showed you trying to scan ATSC, so that definitely wont show your analog channels.

You need to manually import or add your analog channels - there is no analog scan feature.

I disabled my firewall, then i went back in and attempted to scan for channels again and it still shows my quailty as 0, and it won't pick up any channels, then it still comes up with the same error

See my post above.

When you go into the Devices screen, double click on the 'Analog' device, then use either the 'Add' or 'Import' buttons. The 'Import' button requires you to have an xmltv file with your channels listed.

There is no built in schedules direct support at this stage, but you can use mc2xml to load your schedules direct listings into an xmltv file.
