I have to backtrack a little on this.

Just for grins, I did a rescan for QAM256 on my cable last night.  I
found 7 services, 4 of which had non-0 video pids.  I tried tuning
them but still got a signal strength of 0000.  I tried a capture on a
few of them anyway, and surpisingly, got something.  Mac, is the
signal strength checking in the Fusion 5 driver known to work?

I didn't recognize the programs nor channels I captured.  After
unsuccessfully trying to capture some video pid 0 services, I went
back and was no longer able to find any video.  It was late so I
didn't do any more.

I'm not terribly optimistic, but I guess this warrants a more thorough
examination of every service I can detect.
