    There is no such thing as "Canada Cable"; Canada uses the same +frequencies as the United States. "Canada Cable" was a hack that some +people used when they would discover that their channels were off-by-one, +ie, when tuning to channel 42, they might get channel 41 or 43. This is +actually due to the tuner on the video capture device being mis-detected. +You must manually specify the tuner type in your /etc/modules.conf. +See the video4linux mailing list ( +https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/video4linux-list) for +more information.
