The idea being that the IR blaster controls the Rogers box and you read the result via the analog card. This is not true HDTV but at present it is the only way to work things with Rogers HDTV. "<br>

I'm in Oakville using an HDHomerun. I get my HD via OTA--lots of people get ~20 channels with an outdoor antenna (and NO monthly fees)! I have the second tuner connected to Cogeco cable. They're nice enough to provide 30+ digital QAM channels that mirror many of the analog offerings. No HD but Family for the kids, etc.<br>
