ok, I will do that
any advice on figuring out why the virtual serial port /dev/ttyS_38_0 is not working with the TestSerialPort command?
Clearly the gc100 is working along with the serial cable since I am able to get feedback with the iTest.exe application. How can I go about debugging the virtual serial port? I would rather work on this problem first. If I can't solve it there is no point in generating a template as I need to use my gc100 to control the receiver. If I can't get the gc100 virtual serial port working I'd prefer to switch to IR control.
I've got the gc100 using IR to successfully control both my TV and Verizon STB in this entertainment area. I wanted to use RS232 for the receiver since it supports it, but if I can't get the gc100 to play nicely with the virtual serial port, then IR is my only option.
