[QUOTE="twemperor, post: 1014097, member: 102917"] Sorry for seeming 'nitpicky,' but the instructions are clearer now. Really, this needs to be merged into the trunk [I]ASAP[/I][I]. [/I]This is a killer feature. To be honest, the tuning with PBDA with the second patch already seemed faster than the 1.3alpha patch (sorry, I never tried the 1.3 final patch since I was waiting for this). I don't have measurements from 1.3a. The native/DRI tuning is slightly faster, around 1.5-3 seconds. This is amazing, after struggling with the HD-PVR to get high-def cable channels, this CableCard just blows it away. Yes, I just got that set up tonight. It was pretty straight-forward (now that I read [I]all[/I] your instructions, compiled here in the event it's useful for someone else): 1) I enabled my clear QAM tuners and set the Tuning Mode to "Clear QAM Cable" 2) For my channels that I know are clear over-the-air, I went through and edited their properties to indicate that they are "Free Over the Air". This changed the channels icon from red (encrypted) to green (not encrypted). 3) I mapped my clear channels to my clear QAM tuners. In the process now of running Clear QAM scans... [/QUOTE]
