I cannot find the tuner specs for the Samsung GX-SM530CF CableCARD Box, but it should work since it is so new.

I have in the past found this info. The Samsung box indeed does support 1GHz/H.264

We would also need to know if it supported Copy Protected content in H.264/MPEG4.  The TiVo Premiere did not when Cox first introduced the Plus Pak HD.  TiVo had to update the software to accommodate that.

Not being a DVR, I doubt that the Samsung receiver would be bothered by that. Only way to tell for sure is a hands-on test. I doubt it would be specified anywhere.
