[mythtv-users] sa3250HD Channel Change

I recently updated my backend to FC6 and moved my old database and
recordings directory back onto the machine.  The whole upgrade went
amazingly smooth.  At the same time, i received an "upgrade" to my
sa3250HD cable box from Time Warner to their "Time Warner Navigator"
interface.
One of those two things seems to have broken the channel change over
firewire using both the internal mythtv support and sa3250ch.  The STB
is not responding at all.  I remember when i originally set up the box
i had some issues with it changing to the incorrect channel... just to
be clear, its not doing this... the STB is simply not doing anything.
I don't remember exactly what the edits i made to sa3250ch.c to make
it work that time.  But i believe it was essentially what the new -s
switch provides.
Verbose output from sa3250ch shows that it is finding the box and
thinks it is changing the channel.  I have tried using the individual
digits method and the -s switch.  Both with the same result.
Has anyone else received this upgrade from TWC?  Any thoughts?
