Re: Idiots...

said by jmr50:

it still does nothing for the millions of CableCard-enabled TVs out there.
There actually are very few cablecard enabled TVs being used with cards, sadly. The vast majority of them that aren't in MSO owned boxes are in TiVos, by something like a 10 to 1 margin.

That doesn't mean I disagree with your point or think that the tuning resolver is a real solution.

And as a side note, a large part of the reason for that low penetration is the cable companies themselves, leaving out SDV entirely. They misinform customers, many require a truck roll to have them installed, and they have such poor training on them that even when they send out an employee to do the install, it still often either doesn't work or takes hours for them to make it work.

It's really quite ridiculous.

It's wierdo, not weirdo. Yes, I know that's not the 'proper' spelling of the similar english language word.
