Hi,

    I have been running Mythtv for around 15 years. I can usually figure 
things out on my own,but channel changing has me baffled. I want to use 
firewire for changing channels.. I have all the right files installed 
and I can change channels using a terminal out side of Mythtv.. I know 
its working,by using cat to start a stream from my hdpvr 1212,then open 
another terminal and send a channel change  6200ch  -g 
0xb81619fffe2805bd -4  13. The stb changes the channel, and the stream 
changes to channel 13. I have tried every command line I have found on 
the net and no joy..

   I don't see anything useful in the logs..

If anyone has the same setup as I do could you lend a hand?
