Or, try plugging the cable straight from the wall into the TV - bypassing the box altogether. Then let the TV search for channels. It will find the HD channels just fine though it might assign them weird numbers eg: 51.5 or 64.2. Once it finds them, use your remote to put them in a favorites list. Then you can go right to them. Note: any premium channels will be lost this way (HBO, etc.)
