<div>Well I successfully got Myth setup to work with my SA3250HD cable
box's firewire port and I can receive HD content and change channels
for the following stations:<br><div style="margin-left: 40px;"><br>espn, discovery, nbc, fox
<br></div><br>but I cannot get<br><div style="margin-left: 40px;"><font size="2"><br>pbs, <span id="st" name="st" class="st">cbs</span>, abc</font><br></div><br>through
firewire. I have firewire ports on my television and those channels
work fine so I don't think they are encrypting those channels. I can
see the channel changes being made on the cable box to go to those
channels so I know that it is going to the right station. I tested on a
lower level using test-mpeg2 on those channels and I get no data but if
I use sa3250ch to change the channel to say nbc and run
test-mpeg2 again it works fine. I have no idea why it is working on
some and not others. Does anyone have any ideas?

Just to update my original problem in case anyone else runs across it.
Tongiht my firewire stopped working so I ended unplugging the firewire
cable for 1 min then plugged back in ran all the plugctl commands to
reset everything and now I am getting all my HD stations. I think the
biggest thing to work with when doing this firewire stuff is to
constantly hard reboot your cable box when you are playing with it and
constantly use the plugctl command recommended in the firewire wiki to
reset everything through software then once you have it working don't
touch anything.<br>
