Thanks for the tip -- I just cancelled my order with Amazon.

Best case -- i can get it to work with Sage, if not, I'll jump to Media Center and sell my HD200.

If you're looking for the CC capabilities then I don't have any experience there. However the last time these were on Woot I bought one and am using as a ClearQam tuner with excellent results.

I ordered a 2nd one today. These will be replacing my 2 old original HDHR's on my system. Bumping my Qam tuners to 6. I may also experiment with trying to get CC working.
I have been following the thread about playback troubles with some files. Hopefully they can get that straightened out and then I'll try CC.

Yep -- I want to do the CableCard thing to replace the collossus & cable box. I, too have been following the long thread, and am cautious about CableCard & Sage. But, like I said, I am prepared to go WMC if I can't get it to go.

It was amazingly easy to get the card, install it, activate it, and be rocking in WMC.

Now to test my luck with sage...

SUCCESS. 6 Tuners (in SageTV) now Outstanding.
