SageTV and live tv firewire

Hey guys, sorry if this is painfully obvious, but can someone tell me if viewing live tv via firewire from my motorola cable stb is possible with SageTV? I was able to get the stb to work fine under BeyondTV, but it will not allow me to watch/channel surf live tv but will let me record programs.

My ideal set up is to be able to watch all of my tv (which includes basic/extended cable, hd via the stb, and my FTA channels). Currently I've got two pvr150's using cable in for the basic/extended and one card doing double duty with the FTA signal coming in via svideo and rca audio. Can Sage share cards this way?

Can't help you one the firewire.


SageTV does handle the multiple input cards properly, I have a PVR500 using both analog tuners for CATV, one Svideo for DVD player and a composite for my CCTV multiplex. Works like a champ but my guide says "no data".

You can watch live TV via firewire. Do a search for "firewire" and you'll find the setup thread.
