</div>I am able to use firewire to change channels even though most of the<br>
channels themselves are not available for recording over firewire. So I<br>
capture the component output of the cable box using the HD-PVR and just<br>
use firewire for changing channels. That may work even if you can't<br>
record that way.<br>
<br>
I have had no luck getting a serial IR blaster to work. I did not try<br>
using the one that came with the HD-PVR because there was no support for<br>
it in the Linux driver the last time I checked. Maybe there is now.<br>
