<div>I have a strange predicament, or at least I haven't stumbled upon
anyone else with it yet. I have a Scientific Atlanta 4200HD box. I am
using the cable out on the back of my cable box and it goes into my
second tuner card (PVR-250). Here's the problem:
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The cable box's cable out only broadcasts on channel 3. So when
Myth has a listing for lets say... channel 5, it tunes from 3 to 5. Now
it only picks up static, however for it to work, it needs to stay tuned
on 3. The cable box can be on whatever channel needs to be recorded,
that's why I bought an IR Blaster, but getting that to work is a
problem for later. I hope most, or at least all of this, made sense.

Why are you using the RF connection from your cable box?
You should be using the S-Video or composite outputs instead. The
"Cable Out" (RF) connection is the worst one that box has.<br>
