Re: Blog: Getting your Ceton InfiniTV 4 this week? Some hints to
Actually I can confirm that Comcast Dublin, California (Digital), at least in my system… worked flawlessly without having to unpair/re-pair.
Scenario:
* I had 2 mcards in 2 external ATI DCTs on my vista media center.
* My cable package is HD with no premium channels, Comcast here does not use SDV
Today got the ceton 4 tuner delivered.
1. I turned off my old vista machine and hauled out my new Win 7 machine.
2. Previously I had already run the Digital CAble Advisor
3. I took out one of the mcards from one of the ATI DCTs
4. I installed the infinitv into the win7 machine and booted, installed drivers and also had to do a quirky thing with the Win Media Center Receiver and Scheduling services (had to switch the service startup to use local account instead of Network account… not sure why but they weren’t starting up)
5. I ran through the Win 7 TV setup process, and just skipped the part about calling the cable provider
6. Tested live tv and recording 4 channels at once and it worked. I have no premium channels so could not tell if any channels are blocked.
In the past I had accidentally swapped mcards between the ATI DCTs so I was pretty sure it would work…
