I have a PVR 350. I'm using two sources. The first is basic cable straight into the rf input. Channels on basic are 1-100. I used the EPG to load the channels and then I disabled all the channels above 100.
My secound source is the digital cable box into the SVideo of the 350. I used the EPG to load the channels and then disabled the channels from 1 - 100.
The reason I have it set up this way is the 350 tuner will not receive premium channels so all I should need to do to schedule a recording on a premium channel is set the record on the channel using the program guide as normal, and also set to record using the program guide on the cable box.
I believe the way this should work is if I select a channel below 101 GBPVR should use the basic cable source and tune to the selected channel. If I select a channel above 100, say HBO 241, then gbpvr should select the digital cable box source which is S-Video. Then I would need to use the cable box remote if I want to change channels.
Problem: If I am on channel 5 and press channel 241 it stays on 5. If I press 255 it will switch to SVideo. It seems it does not recognize all availabe channels above 100 as valid channels. I've varified that the channels are enabled. On a few instances when it's been able to switch channels, I was still receiving audio from the previous channel. This only happens when I change channels that cause it to change sources.
Is there something else I should check on my configuration?
