Hi all, I have an old Roamio Pro, with cable card and high split converter, Spectrum cable, and has been working perfectly for the last 2 years or so, but the hard drive failed. It gave read and write failures in the SMART test. I replaced the hard drive with a new one from Weaknees that I bought about 2 years ago, but hadn't needed to use yet. Successfully went through guided setup, and most of my channels are back, but a handful are not. These are the same handful I used to have problems with all the time, before I got this high split converter, which seemed to solve all my old tuning adapter problems. With these problem channels, when I tune to the channel, I get a lowres "for your installer" screen that says I need to call my cable company and start service. Cable company confirms that everything appears to be working correctly from their end.
Now that I have a pretty new high split converter, I'm not inclined to blame it for this problem. Has my cable card coincidently died at this exact time? Would I be able to get most of my channels with a dead cable card? Or is it possible I need some kind of software update?
