Channel changing PVR250 vs. cable.

I need someone to tell me if I have this all correct in my head since all the hardware hasn't arrived yet. I just got my Hauppauge PVR 250 last night and got it installed along with the Hauppauge software and BG-PVR. My digital cable comes out of the cable box on channels 4 and 7 for different TVs. I haven't received my USB UIRT yet but I'm trying to play with some of this ahead of time. I configured GB-PVR to use the (currently nonexistent) USB UIRT for changing channels. When I go to the guide and select a channel (for instance, channel 24) it changes the tuner channel off of 7 and all I get is static. Is it smart enough to know the USB UIRT isn't there yet, or do I need to configure something else so that the PVR 250 stays on channel 7?

In the capture source settings you need to select the "fixed channel, external tuner' option, and specify "7" in the constant channel box.

Wow thansks for the quick response. I will try that out tonight. I can't tell you how impressed with all your work on this software, but perhaps a donation will help show my appreciation.
