    Default WinTV HVR as webcam

    I'd like to use my 950-HVR as a webcam within Skype.

    I go into Skype's video settings, click the 'webcam settings' button, and up pops a Hauppauge window that allows me to tune to analog TV channels.

    I'd like to use ATSC signals as there is no more analog around here, but I'm not given that option. I can only tune to analog static.

    Is there a setting somewhere I'm missing?

    This is down to the software. I'm pretty sure Skype will only look for analog capture devices, and will ignore the ATSC capabilities of the device.
