I hadn't done that, but I just tried it and it didn't make any
difference. Here's the odd thing: It looks like 2 of my channels are
switched some how. Let me explain:
Channel 231 is the local ABC HD channel and Channel 248 is a
weather-only NBC channel. When I tune 231 or 248 on my pcHDTV5500 card,
I get the proper channels. If I change the input by pressing Y, I get
the other channel. Being on 231 shows 248 content, yet the OSD shows
231's program info. Conversely, going to 248 shows 231 content but
248's program info.
What else should I be looking at? I'll try and rescan later on the HDHR
inputs to see if that makes a difference.
Thanks,
Harry
