Somewhat related, I guess, so I thought I'd add it on. Having *just* gotten my myth box running this weekend, I'm looking ahead to adding hdtv capability. Someone mentioned that the pchdtv also supports QAM - so, does that mean that if i were to use it, I'd be able to tune my digital cable without the set top box?

Re: [mythtv-users] pchdtv3000 compile help
From what I understand ( i don't have an HDTV, so I might not be the best to listen to!), you can use the firewire output from your set top box to record the HD coming over cable (no need to worry about QAM) and use your PCHDTV 3000 card for OTA HD. Keep in mind that many set top boxes have a firewire output but they all aren't enabled. Search the mailing list to see if you can figure out if it is enabled or not.
