[mythtv-users] Channel Changing script for Hughs DirectTV

[maillist at citadelsystems.net]

Hello, 

Since all of you are so helpful, I'd thought I would contribute back.

Attached is a perl script (based off of the Sony perl script) for HTL-HD
Hughs DirecTV receivers to change the channels. The script will turn the
receiver on and change the channel. 

A little technical: The way channels are changed on this receiver is a
little funny. You send it half of the command string wait for it to say
OK then send the rest of the command. 

I plan on cleaning up the code one day. But it is a usable hack and has
been in use for about 3 to 4 months now.
