What would cause such a difference between the cx18 > tuner and the one in the TV? Could you please clarify which cx18 device you are using (since that largely effects which tuner/demod are onboard)? Assuming you're talking about the HVR-1600, generally speaking, the perfomance should be comparable to Windows, although admittedly my previous analysis was restricted to ClearQAM performance. It would be a helpful exercise if you could boot up Windows and see how it does, as this will tell us if it's simply a hardware limitation or perhaps the demod is improperly programmed compared to the Windows driver.
