Leadtek TV card + cable box ?

[Bombino]

Hello all,

Basically.. I get about 10 channels (not 2-13) w/ the direct feed into the TV card. I would order a box
from the cable company, but then I wont be able to record on the fly, nor use the winfast remote..
which kinda defeats the purpose of this card.

does anyone know of a signal booster or maybe like a piggyback descrambler for analog cable?..
one that just deals with signal and lets you change channels from the TV itself (or tv card in my case)??


thanks for any help.

Do you have any type of cable service? Like if you hooked up a cable ready tv do you get all the channels?

I only get maybe 10 channels w/o a box. I have Comcast(ATT)

And the tv tuner doesn't pick up all the channels?

Are you setting the input to "Cable television" instead of the "air broadcast" ?

The LeadTek card should act just like a box.

yes sir.. the feed is set to Cable. I get the same amount of channels with
a regular TV if I bypass the cable box and run the coax straight into the set.

thanks for the reply.

digital cable's usability sucks eh?

My digital cable service gives me over 70 channels on analog still (no box required) and then an additional 30+ channels on the digital side.

Another bump for ya
