Does Verizon FIOS use switched digital video (SDV) technology

I have a Ceton InfiniTV cable card tuner and I can't view TV in Windows Media Center.  I get a message that "Service is Unavailable".  When I go to tuner diagnostics in WMC I can view live TV in the thumbnail window.  I am told that some service providers are using SDV and if so I will need a tuning (TA) adapter to access SDV channels.  I talked to a tech service rep who did not know the answer.  I think I am having other issues with not being able to view live TV except in the diagnostic window thumbnail and any suggestions to solve them would be helpful.  I have been able to watch live TV in the past but have not been able to maintain a stable platform with connectivity never lasting more than a few weeks.  I have reinstalled Ceton's software and drivers and did a full re-install of the Windows OS (Windos 7 Ultimate 32 bit) without success.

Thanks

No, FiOS does not use SDV.
