Comcast basic cable and would like to use the pinnacle tuner to capture analog
signals and the HDHomerun dual tuners for unencrypted QAM HD channels (local HD
networks). I originally had mythdora installed but I could not get the video
working properly. I recently switched to the newest version of Mythbuntu and I
am having issues with the pinnacle card. The card is recognized, but I cannot
lock any channels. I also cannot get the SPDIF audio to work (it worked under
mythdora). I am also having issues with getting the snapstream firefly remote
to work. My last issue is that my case has a screen on it, simimalr to an A/V
receiver, and I cannot get that to work (this is probably the least of my
worries though).I have spent probably 40-50 hours playing around with my setup
and cannot seem to get anywhere. I was hoping to have a linux guru walk me
through the steps of configuring the box (preferably in person, but any help is
greatly appreciated). <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

I really like the interface of mythtv and am trying to steer away from
Microsoft Vista MCE and sagetv. My computer seems to run much cooler with linux
and I think the functionality is better as well. I live near e-470 and smoky
hill in southeast metro area, and if you could help me out in person, I would
certainly reimburse you. If remote help is the only way to go, I am certainly
open to that as well. I just need someone to help me out with this setup. I
have two little kids and was hoping to get this setup so I could record their
favorite shows.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
