When I set up WMC 7 on my computer I had a HDHR tuner I had been using before Comcast converted over to digital. Using the QAM feature I can receive my local stations. However when I try to record one of the programs, all the indicators within WMC show it is recording or will record at the correct time but nothing is recorded in the proper directory ( or anywhere on my drive) . Also the recording icon in the system tray is not displayed. I have been working with this for a couple of weeks, but have had no success with the obvious things like virus scan, firewall, and all WMC setup items. Anyone had this before?

I've got HdHomerun Dual tuner, but do not have cable.
I get my TV from a rooftop antenna and get all local stations in HD.

The programs are put into a folder called "recorded TV." (C drive)
