 Channel Change control for SA4200 via firewire.

 The SA3250 channel change utility does not work for the SA4200 box.  It
 seems to have a different command structure.  After putzing around with a
 bunch of bit settings, I think I found one that works.  (Basically
 SA4200's vendor id is 0x14f8  and model_id is 0x1072  and you send the
 same command, except cmd[1] is simply  CTL_CMD1 | (chn << 8);

 sa4200ch.c is attached.

 I don't think the key_release command in sa3250 was being sent right,
 I've found that simply sending it in one transaction works better.

 I don't know howto make this an internal thing instead of an external
 tool, if someone could point me in the right direction I'll create a patch
 for that as well.
