If you use Digital Cable, you will notice that the channel numbers do not correspond at all to the channels you know a given broadcaster is using: for instance, a local ABC affiliate may use “Channel 7” in its identity, but it can appear as channel 85-17 in EyeTV. And channel “85-17” is generally not how cable providers refer to the broadcaster in their own channel listings either. Unfortunately, there is no common and publicly available standard in the United States that describes channel information for digital cable. This complicates things, because EyeTV cannot automatically fetch channel information from TitanTV. To set up your channel list for use with TitanTV, proceed as follows:
Log in to the TitanTV.com web site and add your cable provider’s Digital Cable lineup to your account, then go to the Digital Cable program listings grid.

With the EyeTV Programs window open, select Channels in the left sidebar and select the first new Clear QAM channel in the list (usually channel number 100, if Miglia TVMini HD is the only EyeTV hardware connected to your Macintosh.)

Watch this channel’s content for a while until you know for sure which channel it actually is. For example: In our particular cable system, EyeTV Clear QAM channel 101 carries the local CBS affiliate, station call sign WRAL-TV5. However, the name the cable company assigned to this channel is “EVA-210-PROG-2”. The Cable company may use other naming conventions, like our channel 100, WTVD, which is named "85-17" in our example. It is also possible that your cable company will not assign any names at all to the channels, as with channel 102 in our example:

Now locate WTVD in TitanTV’s grid. Because most cable systems carry both analog and digital signals, WTVD will likely appear twice in the list — once in the low channel numbers for the analog transmission, and again in the high numbers for the digital cable transmission. We find the digital broadcast of WTVD here:

Control-Click on channel 100 in the EyeTV Programs window Channels list. This will show you a contextual menu with the word Rename at the top:

Click on Rename. Enter the name that TitanTV displays for the station, exactly as it is listed in TitanTV’s program grid. Our channel name is WTVD-DT:

Then click OK — and repeat this procedure for all the Clear QAM channels that you are able to receive.
EyeTV saves these custom channel names. They are retained even if you auto-tune another time — so this channel name customization step should not be necessary after the initial setup effort.

If EyeTV adds channels to the list that appear encrypted or that carry no signal when you view them, you can choose to ignore a channel by unchecking the checkbox that is to the right of the channel number in the EyeTV Programs channels list.
