Is anyone using ClearQAM in Emby with any brand of tuner?

Yes. HDHR tuners.

Mind if I ask how many stations you get this way and roughly how many are in HD?

16 HD 51 SD and 50 Music Choice. That is using basic lifeline service. The next level up includes SD versions of all the popular/commone cable networks so another 50ish channels.

That's pretty good.  If you don't mind me asking what cable provider do you have?

Are these Prime tuners with the cable cards?

It is a local CATV provider. Not one of the big monopolies.

That is from a HDHR Connect. I did have a Prime with CableCard also when I was a higher tier subscriber - Basic + I think they call it. Got the HD versions of all those popular cable channels using it no DRM so it was nice.

Have you thought of hooking the Primes up and using them for ClearQAM as well without the cable card?

I actually have one of the 2 primes I own setup as ClearQAM. I have a crazy number of HDHR connects got them cheap so there really isn't the need for it, what can I say I like to play around.
