So,
I've searched the forums and can't seem to find any solid answers.
What I have at home is basic cable (Suddenlink -- they simulcast analog/digital down the line). No CableCARD, no set-top box required currently for me to view the digital channels. (And, if I read correctly, FCC only requires cable providers to provide CableCARDs if they require a cable box for their service? Correct me if I'm wrong)
The TiVo site, of course, says that CableCARDs are required for use with the Roamio series DVRs. But, elsewhere on the TiVo site, it also says that the CableCARDs are used for decrypting digital cable streams. My channels, which come in digitally, do not require decryption.
I also saw a thread on here (http://ift.tt/1BnYAVC) and it seemed like the OP was able to make it work by bypassing the CC setup screen, then rescanning manually later.
Does anyone have any ideas whether or not my setup will work? The Roamio is a neat addition to the lineup and I'd love to be able to get my hands on one.
Let me know if you need any more info. Slow day at work, so I should be able to answer quickly.
