Re: [mythtv-users] 350/500 setup. Tuner #3 cannot tune about 60 or so.
Thanks. I'll be waiting for the released version. I'm taking no chances with the premier of 24 on tonight. :) The fact that it's the third tuner (so rarely used except for live tv), I think I can wait.

Both of the PVR-150's in the 500 are identical Samsung's, so they should be acting the same. Perhaps your test setup was incorrect.

2) If you are splitting the signal three or more ways and don't have an amplified splitter, you'll need to get one. Hmm... I have an amplifier on the connection I use for the myth box. Comes out of the wall, into the amplifier, into a splitter then one leg into the 350, one leg into the 500. Seems weird that if it is a signal quality issue, it would only affect one tuner on the same card and not the other though... Both of the other tuners are crystal clear up to Channel 99.
