Insight Cable in Northern Kentucky is going all digital. This will
require
me to attach a set top box to each of my PVR-250's. (Serious Bummer).
What equipment do I need to control each of these boxes independently and
how do I set it up. I see instruction for controlling 1 but not much on
controlling 2. I currently run a stand-alone backend, myth version 25469
on
Centos 5 (2.6.18-194.11.3.el5.centos.plus), 2- PVR-250's and an HD
HomeRun.

...but I do know that one works (I have that among my collection).
Note however that you'll need a rather recent mceusb driver for it to
behave 100% correctly.
This one also works (also have it in my collection):

Also requires fairly recent mceusb for transmit to work.
Outside of those two, pretty much anything usb with two IR blaster
ports on the back is very very likely to be an mceusb device, and will
work with the mceusb driver.

How do you test the blaster setup. I installed the device and since
my remote was not on any of the lirc lists I used irrecord to record
the output and put this in my lircd.conf file. I can use irw and it
see's the remote and returns the info but I can't seem to get the
transmitter to work. I've followed this guide toe setup (<a
href="http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/MCE_Remote">http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/MCE_Remote</a>)
. When I manuals issue the commands<br>

</span></span>I get no errors but nothing happens. I've tried the

<br>
Not sure which direction to go to troubleshoot further. <br>
