No ..

I have tried Windoze Xp with the new version of the Hauppauge drivers, Linux Mint 8 live cd which has a Scan from no initial file option, MythBuntu and MythDora all give no channels apart from the 62 I already have.

I would like to know what chips my two set top boxes have in them as they work fine!
Perhaps I will go for a Settop with composite in to the Hauppauge card until things sort themself's out.
BTW has any one used the Novotech usb tuner http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/specpage.html?NOV-USBTV
it's for 13 quid 
I might just give it a go and see what happens.
