After you complete the Media Center and Digital TV setup
wizards and then download your TV Program Guide, the
Media Center TV Program Guide may display incorrect
ATSC DTV channels. Some channels may have an
incorrect channel number and other channels may not be
displayed at all. These HDTV channels may be available
in your area, but they may not be listed in the Media
Center TV Program Guide.
A more complete ATSC TV channel guide may be
available from third party providers, such as Titan TV. For
more information, see the Media Center Online Spotlight.
To view or record HDTV content, you need an HP Digital
Entertainment Center with ATSC tuner (included) and
UHF/VHF antenna (sold separately).
