Im curious to know if anyone else is having this problem with their EyeTV 250. I just recieved in it the mail yesterday. After hooking it up, the setup was easy, while flicking through the channels, I noticed that channels 1 to 35ish seem to be great quality, almost TV quality, but after 35 to 40ish I notice the higher I go, the more pixelated the channels seem to get, by the time I get to 60-75, I can hardly see the picture.

I have heard only good reviews on the EyeTV 250, thats why im wondering if theres something Im doing wrong.

It was originally going through a splitter, then i took the splitter out of the equation and direct connected the two wires together, The picture is about the same as before, maybe a 'slight' difference.

I dont believe it is my cable coming into my house, because I've had Comcast Digital Cable at my house for years now, I have never ran into any troubles with clarity on it before.

Any suggestions on anything I can try or buy at radioshack?


EDIT: I have a PM G5 with 1GB of RAM.

EDIT 2: I just was experimenting, I hooked EyeTV up to my Comcast Digital Cable Box(HDTV), ALL of the channels come in clear, n very good quality. But ofcourse, I cant have my EyeTV hooked up to my DCB 24/7.
