[QUOTE="thirdoff, post: 1030961, member: 113920"] You say "get a signal from card". I have that card and maybe I misunderstand your statement but it produces NO signal, it is only an HD "capture" card. You have to hook up a cable box or other source to "get a signal to the card." If you are doing that and that source is the Telus, how are you connecting it? HDMI, Component, RCA? Can you get any source video to show with the HAUPPAUGE software? Does the Telus work to TV? Once you verify both devices working and how you're connecting, we can move on to troubleshooting your mediaportal setup/inputs. SchedulesDIRECT (not free) will work for getting EPG data as long as your area's cable listings are there. I use USB-UIRT for channel changing, I have used STB to FIREWIRE in the past. I don't use the colossus much any more because it "claims" our cable box. I much prefer my HDHOMERUN - cablecard setup now. I have a nice and easy setup that controls so much more than just the cablebox. ...at the moment we are making photo-real consumer "virtual" remotes to use with a blaster and "TER Remote" and eventghost.
