When I was installing MTS TV we had to setup the picture controls on alot of the TV's as the were out a bit as the TV was interpriting the signal it was getting differently from the other provider.

Actually Shaw is not completely digital. Some of there channels are still analog, and if you cancel or reactivate them, they still have to go to the box outside your house/neighbourhood to actual remove the filter from the line, or add it if you cancel. I know this from experience.

These analog channels run through the digital cable box, but are not digital sound or picture.

ya thats your tear 1, 2 and 3. all the rest are digital or HD it would be stupid to go 100% digital as if some one only wants tear 1,2 and 3 they don't need a special box so all they need is there tv and they are good to go. so only 1 remote, and 1 piece of equipment to run. I know from the elderly inlaws this was a saviour as I had to explain about 3 times a week how to use the VCR/DVD but never had to explain how to watch tv.

True enough, makes sense. What I hate is that they market all digital in true fact it isn't. I have Shaw, but I do love my FTA (Free to Air), all the Dish Network Digital channels I want.
