Hi everyone,<div><br></div><div>I have a MythTV network at my house that I have been using mainly for sharing movies hosted on the backend to remote frontends.</div><div><br></div><div>I have two DirecTV receivers hooked up to my backend via two PVR-150's. The model #'s are D12-100 & D12-700.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I can change channels on the D12-100 receiver via <a href="http://directv.pl">directv.pl</a> on the command line (haven't tried in MythTV), but the D12-700 times out no matter what command is sent. I have both of them hooked up via identical pl2303 chipset serial 2 usb adapters with a null modem adapter in between. Again, the hook up is identical and the D12-100 works with no issues.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Here is an output from the CLI with the D12-700 with the <a href="http://directv3.pl">directv3.pl</a> script floating around:</div><div><br></div><div><div>alan@server:~$ ./<a href="http://directv3.pl">directv3.pl</a> port /dev/D12-700 box_type D11 verbose get_channel</div>
