I get the basic/analog channels plus the stuff in the middle. I haven't
gotten the HD
channels to work but I think that might be pilot error.
My problem is that viewing is sporadic. When I select "Watch TV" the
front end
times out waiting for the backend, and the backend times out because it
says it didn't
get a signal over firewire within 15 seconds. Once things start working
it's pretty
reliable, but more often than not after I boot things aren't working.
There was a
thread awhile back regarding point-to-point vs broadcast - I've tried both.
This is with mythtv 0.18.1 and fc4. I've observed this with fc3 as well
(fwiw).
