AutoUSCableMapFiltered: used for legacy applications that only support the Cable channel
map. The HDHomeRun driver will look up the requested frequency and compare with the channel
configuration recorded by HDHomeRun Setup. The requested frequency is converted to a HRC or
IRC frequency as needed.
If the requested frequency is known not to contain unencrypted digital video then the channel will
be set to “none”. This will result in a zero signal strength and speed up the channel scan process.
RemapFrequency: used for legacy applications that support DVB-T but not DVB-C. The
HDHomeRun driver will look up the requested OTA frequency in the lineup file (RemapTrigger
field). If a match is found it will tune the actual frequency specified in the lineup file.
RemapProgram: used for legacy applications that support ATSC but not ClearQAM. The
HDHomeRun driver will look up the requested OTA frequency in the lineup file (RemapTrigger
field). If a match is found it will tune the frequency+program specified in the lineup file. When
operating in this mode the HDHomeRun will generate the PAT, PMT, and VCT information needed
to work with ATSC only applications. When using this mode only 68 channels can be used as there
are 68 OTA frequencies (channels 2 to 69).
Channel identification:
US Digital Cable providers typically do not sent a VCT with the stream. In cases where a VCT is
included in the stream this information often incorrect.
Silicondust maintains a lineup server that tracks unencrypted digital cable channels to match with
guide data. Silicondust provides access to this information via a web API – see following Lineup
Server chapter.
Driver configuration:
The user specifies the application they intend to use with the HDHomeRun when the run
HDHomeRun Setup. This selection sets a number of registry options to adjust the driver behavior
to suit the specified application.
For development the Application can be set to “Other: Registry”. This tells HDHomeRun Setup not
to overwrite the registry options, thus allowing the options to be set manually.
For production please contact Silicondust to have your application added to the list of user-
selectable applications in HDHomeRun Setup.
Registry:
The BDA driver configuration is per tuner, stored in:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Silicondust\HDHomeRun\Tuners\<device id>-<tuner index>
Values are case sensitive.
Name Valid Values
Model Firmware model string from the HDHomeRun hardware.
Used by the BDA driver to configure device specific features.
SourceType “Digital Antenna”, “Digital Cable”, “Disabled”.
Used by HDHomeRun Setup to enable source specific features/options.
Used by the BDA driver to select auto-modulation group if not specified by the application.
Source Name of the source. Should be set to “Digital Antenna”, “Digital Cable”, or “Disabled”
unless there are multiple directional antennas or multiple cable systems.
Used by HDHomeRun Setup to manage channel lineups.
Used by Dynamic Tuner Allocation feature to identify interchangeable tuners.
