I'd offer up that the ClearQAM "half" of the card still uses the xxx.x format. X went away because you're tuning the Prime half of the card now (which your provider has mapped the channels to integer numbers). I'm new to using WMC because I'm trying to dump DirecTV in favor of my local cable company (MediaCom), their CableCard and a HDHomeRun Prime!ĮDIT - I'm guessing the. By renting a CableCard (and using the "Prime" or a Ceton) you'll receive the channels that are available via your cableTV subscription package, that are encrypted, thus not ClearQAM at all! The only channels available as ClearQAM would be your local broadcasters, not ESPN, TBSHD, TLCHD, etc.Īs the other poster explained, there may be different guides, different setups you have to configure in the WMC setup section to correlate your provider's lineup and the stations it tunes. again, if that's the case then any non "Prime" tuner would work. So maybe they really are digitizing their non-HD stations and sending them out as ClearQAM (digital). Actually, I'm wondering how it's receiving SD (assuming you mean Standard Definition) channels - under most cable systems the Standard Definition channels are sent in the analog (NTSC) domain (ch 2-60-ish) which none of the SiliconDust (yet another "SD" acronym) devices tune.
