</div>It is not clear that there is anything in that script that limits it to three<br>
digits (and even has a stated example of channel 1234). However,<br>
sometimes it is necessary to wait some time period between<br>
key presses (especially duplicated keys, since most STBs<br>
provide some form of debounce protection, so it might see<br>
something like 0112 as 012 (the two 1 keys presumed to be<br>
a finger bounce unless there is sufficient idle/silence time between<br>
the keypresses)).<br>
<br>
The wiki has a number of scripts that claim full 4 digit channel support,<br>
many with various locking and inter-key delays. You might want to<br>
peruse them at:<br>

Not clear that any claim having been tested explicitly with a<br>
CommandIR and a DirecTV STB.<br>
