HI guys........


I just got Beyond TV 3 and the firefly remote, along with a PVR 250.

Now...what is the best way to plug the cable for tv?

I mean...

from the wall plug to the PVR 250 ----> to the TV? (via Svideo)

or ...

from the wall plug to the Cable Box then from there to the PVR250 then to the TV??

Because I know that the PVR can only receive 125 channels but I wish to see the Science Channel which is on the 272 (here on Comcast Miami).

So how do I choose the channels?

Whats better?


THanks...

Emanuele

Well basically you will need to use the cable box to decode the digital channels which the pvr cannot pick up (so it would be wall->cablebox->pvr, and then out to the tv if you want). To change channels you will need one of the products listed here. http://store.snapstream.com/cablepacks.html
