When it was working it looked and sounded great. I am going keep riding Toshiba and Comcast until this problem is resolved.

It seemed to install OK although the TV did not cycle on and off automatically as it was supposed to. So far, no change. Still one channel and updating message on screen. I reinserted cable card with tv off and on with no luck. I'm waiting to hear back from Comcast and Toshiba service. I just received the Seine 1.5 firmware upgrade for my 46HM94.

The 94SEINE145 firmware did not fix the Comcast / Motorola CableCARD problem. The new firmware should be out soon. I am not sure what version number it will be assigned. When I hear word that the firmware is released, I will post a new entry on this blog. The new firmware is NOT the 94SEINE145 firmware.

I upgraded to that one and did not have any success. A new one will be coming out soon that fixes these problems. I am currently running a beta version of the firmware ('diagnostic firmware') and my TV is working flawlessly with a Comcast Motorola CableCARD. I advise you to wait until the new firmware comes out, and make sure that Toshiba ships it to you. This problem turns out not to be on Comcast's end. The upgrade that you got is the old one.

The firmware uploaded the new info and cycle through as it was suppose it but, no change once they installed the cablecard again. Still stuck on only one channel. Any help would be greatly appreciated... I recieved my ‘upgrade’ firmware from Toshiba and nothing has changed – they can still not figure out why the cablecard will not work.

I'm using Adelphia, trying to get Motorola CabeCard to work. So far the first one has failed to be recognized by the TV - if I go into the Menu screens for instance, the CableCard selection is grayed out. Theoretically, tomorrow another cable tech is coming out with a new card. However, since I've yet to talk to any tech who has actually installed one, I'm less than optimistic. What kind of symptoms have others seen with the Toshiba/Motorola setup? Several people have mentioned getting Toshiba involved for upgeades - any contact info? Thanks I’ve got a Toshiba 62hmx94.

In my case, all the techs from Comcast seem to think that it is a problem on their end. They (3 techs over the course of 3 days, totaling more then 8hrs of "Hmmm...I dunno") said that are running into this problem every where they have been installing cablecards. I also have called Toshiba they are sending me an update for my new TV...I'll see if that works. Same problem here in Michigan with my new Toshiba and Comcast cable.

I'm under the impression that it's more of a Toshiba problem than a Comcast problem. Much to my dismay, I'm using the box. Toshiba has assued me that they are working aggressivly on the problem.
