That's what Charter is doing now. I already have some mind do new tuner thing....that is supposed to replace the cable card. Its installed, but not operational yet. How will that screw up my DVR? If I can't get two channels in, then I'm going to be royally pissed.

And then to fix that they switch to SDV which screws up DVRs.....
(SDV means only the channels being watched are taking up bandwidth so
more stuff can fit on the cable)

Compression.  There is only so much bandwidth available on the wire and
frankly, there isn't enough room for all the channels in hidef.  They get
around this by giving great HD for the most watched channels, but the upper
channels that have few viewers they compress like they're trying to fit a BD
on a VCD.

Complain about your channels, they will blame it on you to start, so expect
a few useless housecalls.
