[mythtv-users] Has anyone figured out a way to change channels to an external box (like DirectTV) and get directtv listings in the program guide?

I get DirecTV listing no problem..  When I set up MythTV, I entered my
zip code and DirecTV was the option I chose.

As for changing channels, I still do not have that implemented.  I am
guessing an IR blaster or similar device will work for that...
