Greetings to all:

First I would like to thank everyone here for their help.  You guidance has
saved me a considerable amount of time.

My build is progressing.  I am at the point where I am ready to test the
tuner.  Unfortunately I am not sure hot to connect it to my DIRECTV
satellite receiver.

I tried the obvious and connected it to the output of the box and could not
get a signal.  I am using a Hauppauge hvr1600.  I have tried tuner1,
s-video1, and the DVB input.  The box is an R15.  It has two inputs from the
dish and a coax out to the TV.

Is anyone here running this setup?  If so how did you integrate it?  Lastly,
are you using an IR blaster or serial link to control it?

Regards,
BILL
