I've done this in the past, but all I have is basic cable. If you want the digital channels you would probably need to do what Tivo and the like do, which is to connect your video capture card to the output of your digital cable box, and use an infrared sender to allow MythTV to control the digital cable box.

Is anyone currently running mythtv and using Time Warner cable? I'd like to know what channels I can receive by just hooking up the cable to a pcHDTV 5500 tuner card (I'm considering buying one). I believe that I can receive some channels since they use QAM. Could I receive digital channels in addition to the analog and HD channels? Right now, I have the digital cable package and the HD PVR from Scientific Atlantic. I would like to replace it with a mythtv box, but I don't want to loose functionality. If I would have to watch just HD channels and analog channels, then I think I'll stick with what I have now.
