Hello,<br>
<br>
I just recently put a recorder online that is attached<br>
to an HD DirecTV. Box. For the most part it is an identical<br>
setup to another box I have. Although the models are slightly<br>
diffferent. They are both HD.<br>
<br>
The peculiar bit is that I started having trouble tuning<br>
the newer STB. So I beefed up my channel change script and<br>
added some logging and it turns out that very frequently<br>
I have to try twice to get the channel changed. Oh, this<br>
script will be more persistent than that. Although I've only<br>
seen that I need to retry it once.<br>
<br>
Has anyone else experienced other serial control oddities?<br>
<br>
Will MythTV retry on it's own if you generate useful error<br>
codes?<br></blockquote><div><br>First try increasing the delays at the top of the script ($sd_hd_signal_delay and $clear_osd_delay). I believe I use .5 pretty successfully. Next try the retries argument. The default is 4, try 8.<br>
