This is a dupe from the lirc list, but I'm desperate here!<br><br>My mythtv computer has been out of service for almost 3 weeks now, and I just have no other trouble shooting ideas, I'm completely stuck. All the searching I've done, I only seem to find people having problems with the 0 key. I am having problems with every key.<br>
<br>I bought a dual headed serial IR blaster from <a href="http://irblaster.info">irblaster.info</a>. I'm just trying to get one box working before I try tackling two.<br><br>I am using mythbuntu. I followed these documents<br>
<br><a href="https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallLirc/Gutsy">https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallLirc/Gutsy</a><br><a href="https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Motorola_DCT700_Channel_Change_Script">https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Motorola_DCT700_Channel_Change_Script</a><br>
<br>My lirc_serial module is loaded, lircd is running, and when I try and<br><br>irsend SEND_ONCE DCT700 info<br><br>or power, or numbers, or any key at all, with the irsend command or the perl or python change channel scripts, I get no errors, but the box does not respond. I have both blasters taped right above the eye, and I've repositioned them a thousand times. I've tried it on two seperate DCT700 boxes. I did the camera trick where I watch the blasters when I send an irsend command, and I saw the purple light. So the blasters work, something is sending, but it's not have any effect.<br>
<br>I live in Chicago and have RCN cable. Usually these DCT700 howtos are associated with Comcast. Could the boxes be different? They don't look special. I really am out of ideas and pleading for new ideas to try.<br>
