Update:<br><br>The channel change script is like so:<br><br>#!/bin/sh<br>REMOTE_NAME=DCT2000<br>for digit in $(echo $1 | sed -e 's/./& /g'); do<br>irsend --device=/dev/lircd1 SEND_ONCE $REMOTE_NAME $digit<br>sleep 0.4 # note, you may have to tweak the interdigit delay up a bit<br>done<br>irsend --device=/dev/lircd1 SEND_ONCE $REMOTE_NAME OK<br><br>The relevant portion of modprobe.conf:<br><br>alias char-major-61-0 lirc_i2c<br>alias char-major-61-1 lirc_serial<br>options lirc_serial irq=4 io=0x3f8 #COM1 aka /dev/ttyS0<br>install lirc_i2c /sbin/modprobe ivtv; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install lirc_i2c<br>install lirc_serial setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart none; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install lirc_serial<br><br>When I change the channel-change script to use /dev/lircd it executes without any error messages; however, nothing happens on the set-top box. I have no digital camera to test to see if the blaster is doing anything. Nor have I seen any information on
where exactly the IR blaster is supposed to go--does the stick bit fix to the front of the box? To the "IR" port on the back? Which way should it face?<br><br>Regards,<br>Pete<br><p>
