Hi

I created a cable Box device for a Huawei box. When I was creating the Device I choose Cable Box, added the IR codes, etc. I then setup the device to connect to a TV, a Hitachi, set the inputs to the appropriate HDMI ports, reload regen.

When I clicked the Device scenario for the room using the orbitor, it does nothing, throws an error in the DCErouter.log, see below

When I check the Media Scenario, for the Device, it shows up as a Cable Radio, not sure if that the issue. Did a query, and see below.
^{mysql> select Define, Description,IsExternalTransmission,psc_id,psc_batch from MediaType where PK_MediaType=15;
+---------------+-------------+------------------------+--------+-----------+
| Define        | Description | IsExternalTransmission | psc_id | psc_batch |
+---------------+-------------+------------------------+--------+-----------+

+---------------+-------------+------------------------+--------+-----------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)}



Shouldn't that show up as a CableBox, instead on CableRadio? Would this contribute to the problems I am having?


Which table or view, has the Device Types listed and could I simple update the value to reflect what a Cable Box should read?

While I haven't dug in to completely understand the issue I'm going to suggest that np_Cableradio is expecting to be an embedded device.  That is to say Cable Radio is an embedded feature of a cable box.  I'm not sure why the discrepancy between choice and device in LinuxMCE.  Without digging in further that's all I can suggest to look at right now.

Did some testing. What I realized, when I assigned the Cable Box to the room with the raspberry pi md, it will not error out, gives me the appropriate remote. See excerpt from the DCErouter.log. Will play around some more trying different things.

I checking at the execute scenarios and I noticed a different between the room that has an MD and the one that just has a TV and cable box.

the execute scenario for the room with the MD has a scenario command, command DCERouter Execute Command #28 PK_CommandGroup (int) 188

the similar execute scenario for the room that this thread is about, has no commands
