<div>I provide this script...? Where do I get it? Also, my cable box uses cable out, so I'm going with that but in only inputs on channel 3. Meaning the tuner card needs to stay on channel 3. How do I make it do this?</div>

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="PADDING-LEFT: 1ex; MARGIN: 0px 0px 0px 0.8ex; BORDER-LEFT: #ccc 1px solid">3) The channel change script either uses lirc to drive an ir-blaster<br>which mimics your remote control to change channel on the cable box or
<br>sends a code via a serial interface to the cable box (if your box has<br>a serial input that is).<br>4) Assuming the channel change script completes successfully then<br>mythtv will register the change and select guide information to match
<br>the new channel accordingly.</blockquote>

<div>How can it get new guide information if the tuner card is still on the same channel (3).</div><br>
