[mythtv-users] UPNP Control of STB

[Martin Compton]

I have a DishNetwork receiver (ViP222k) with 2 tuners, only one of which 
can be controlled by MythTV via IR blasts, the second tuner is 
controlled by an RF remote.  Thus I have to manually set the timers for 
anything recorded on the second tuner (via an old WinPCI analog card).

However I discovered that I can change the channels on the Dish tuners 
via UPNP actions.

Does anyone know of an existing command line interface app that can be 
called from within MythTV to send actions to a Upnp device?

I'm poking around "miranda.py" to see if it can do what I need: send 
WakeUp and SetChannel actions to the EchoSTB service, but I thought it 
worth asking those more knowledgeable.

Regards,
MC
