Derek on The Custom Integrators Show blog has details of a Digital Cable Tuner Diagnostic tool for Windows Media Center as part of several tools being made available to members of the Media Center Integrators Alliance (MCIA). The tool will be made officially available next week at EHX.
“The utility scans the tuners and channels and reports back diagnostic information about the channels being received. It includes information like the modulation type, format, frequency, carrier, PCR Lock, encoding level, and authorization. It also provides detailed information about the DCT itself in addition to all of the parameters of the CableCARDs. It allows the system integrator to export the data as an XML file so it can be sent to someone and imported into the tool for analysis elsewhere if required.”
