Re: DTA's - Encription and Hauppauge

Your problem is you can't tune the channels or that you can tune the channels but they are missing channel name/number info?

It would sure be nice to find someone local that does get all the "missing" channels....
From the other posts I have read, I am not the only one having the issue and if in fact WOW is trying to become the leader and fix this type of stuff, then how about a response from them.

I have even gone as far as to IM WOW_Dan, who by the way has Always been a huge help in any issue I have ever had.

btw: There is nothing wrong with my card. Grabbing the HD channels proves that.

Now is there anyone in the Chicagoland area that DOES get all the QAM listings properly?

There is nothing wrong with the tuner... In OTA mode, I see everything and it is labeled correctly.

In Cable Digital mode, the only ones that appear correctly (all others are labeled "Unknown") are the ones I have listed.

Cable tuners and ota tuners are two different animals and your tuner actually has two tuners (one ATSC and one QAM) built in. ATSC tuners pick-up ota signals, QAM tuners pick-up cable signals. Having a great ATSC tuner doesn't mean you'll have a great QAM tuner.

I have been working on my media box and trying to get the QAM channels to show up. I found the topic from WOW_Dan
»DTA's and encryption - A message from WOW!

It talks about being able to see the Basic and Broadcast HD channel names.

I can pickup the info on the Broadcast HD's but not the basic.
I have also seen where others are having simular issues.
I am in the NW Sub's of Chicago and would like to know if WOW is aware of this and or if there is something WOW can do to help.
I am including a log file of my QAM scan.

The Channels that do showup are
Feq:67 SID:244 WSNSh
Feq:73 SID:208 IONHD
Feq:73 SID:219 LIVHD
Feq:77 SID:200 ABCHD
Feq:77 SID:203 NBCHD
Feq:78 SID:202 FOXHD
Feq:78 SID:206 WGNDT
Feq:93 SID:204 MNTHD
Feq:93 SID:205 PBSHD
Feq:94 SID:201 CBSHD
Feq:94 SID:207 CIUHD

The OTA channels are the only HD channels in clear QAM. All cable channels in clear QAM are in SD. Are you able to get the sd clear QAM channels? To be honest, most issues involving clear QAM channels are due to having a poor QAM tuner.
