Mark,
Offhand I don't think that there are any pages in the wiki dealing with
the Rogers boxes. I'm still on Rogers analog but there is no telling
exactly what will happen come the end of August with the OTA digital
changeover in Canada.
...
Please consider writing up a wiki page with an exact recipe for the
changes you had to make to get things working. I suspect that there will
be more than a couple of people who will use it!

With regard to the SA4240HDC, I'm not sure if my changes are
required for all SA4240HDC's or if this change is specific to the
firmware version on this box. I haven't yet tried to determine if
there are other fields in the 1394 directory that could be used to
configure commands for specific device/firmware combinations. Data
from other SA4240's would be needed.<br>
<br>
I'm certainly willing to share the modified code and steps for
building it with anyone who wants it.<br>
