Users / Remote issue

« on: March 13, 2009, 05:25:33 am »

I have an IR Receiver/Blaster and remote that came with my Hauppage PVR 500. I have succeeded in getting the receiver set up. I have a Motorola STB for Time Warner cable. I have the STB set up and I have used the IR test code successfully control the STB. However, when using the remote, it does not change the channels on the STB. It shows the numbers that I press on screen but the channel doesn't change. It appears that the signal is not getting to the STP. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated. I checked the mythtv setup and the TuneToChannel.sh script is in there.

Users / Channel Tuning

« on: March 08, 2009, 10:42:45 pm »

I am trying to setup MythTV to change the channel of my external cable box using the keyboard. I have not installed any ir receivers/remotes yet. I have attempted to run the "mysql -u root mythconverg" command to get the source ID but it displays none of the information that the TuneToChannel wiki say it should display. It only displays the version and my connection id to the database. Should I do something prior to running this?

I notice in Myth setup that it had source from 2. I tried using the TuneToChannel.sh 38 2 but get an error "message constructor malformed with wrong param id" 38 is the id of my cable box. I am testing this before I add more MD. I also would like to be able to watch different channels on different MD simultaneously. I will have a dedicated core. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
