if you're talking digital, then it's QAM. otherwise it's just analog cable.

Digital over cable is called QAM, and encrypted QAM is called clear QAM. You would have to determine if your PCTV HD has a QAM tuner. I found this link on Amazon and there was no mention of it. http://www.amazon.com/PCTV-Stick-USB2-HD...B000IM5GAO There are other PCTV devices that do.

So can I enable nextPVR to work with ATSC over Cable via PCTV HD card?

In this context, what is the definition of an Analog Device? I do not understand if my PCTV HD card is. Is it considered an Analog Device?
Thanks much.

Yes. My card supports QAM. (It worked fin, using XP, for all cable channels I receive until I had to move to Window 7). How do I tell nextPVRor the device to use "QAM"? Getting closer.

It all comes down to what device you decide to scan with on the Settings->Devices screen. You'll probably find your device is list a few times on that screen - once as 'Analog', once as 'ATSC' and once as 'QAM.
