HDHomeRun Setup Tips
This is mostly just to try and document in one place all the things I had to do to get ARGUS TV to work correctly with my HDHomeRun. It took some significant Google-fu and a couple of hours, so hopefully this will save someone else some time. This assumes you are going to try and tune unencrypted QAM from a US cable provider, although I'll try and note what changes you might have to make if you are doing ATSC or are in a different country.
Card Settings
In the main list, set each of the three tuners INPUT to Cable. (if you are doing OTA in the US, choose antenna). In the advanced settings for each card, check the box for RESET WHEN IDLE and change the WAIT FOR SERVICE PMT time to 20 seconds. You can experiment with shorter times, but I know that, for me at least, 10 seconds wasn't enough, and I was too tired to try by little increments. '-)
Windows Firewall Changes
You need to allow ArgusTV.Recorder.Cardhost.exe to have full access (incoming and outgoing) through the Windows Firewall. (I'll get the exact location of this file when I get home)
Scan Setting
This might be specific to the US, or even to Hawaii, but for me the only way I could get a scan done was to select QAM (IRC) as the scan type. Any other option resulted in no services being found.
I hope this helps someone avoid the hours of head banging I did getting the HDHomeRun working.
