[CATV] Home Theater PC + SA8300HD... Advice?

I'm considering adding a Windows 7 Home Theater PC to my living room TV setup. There have been some times that I would like to record some shows, but I'm watch a stream and my DVR is recording a stream.

I've been looking at the Ceton InfiniTV4 card. So the question is... has anyone in Charter Northeastern CT experienced having a SA8300HD DVR and a HTPC setup? Some of the boards report that I would need 2 Cablecards from Charter and 2 tuning adapters.

I just don't want to drop $750 on a setup that won't work at all with Charter.

Got any advice for me?

I could be wrong, but I didn't think Charter was supporting cable cards any longer, and even when they were, coverage was hit or miss.

Good old (young) UMatter2Charter Josh told me that the do in fact support CableCards... and Multiplexing cards... Would just need a tuning adapter for the Ceton card I am considering.
