<div>​Does this script work with Dish receivers too? (Is
it just upnp wrapper or sometone tuned if for DirectTV)?<br>

Neither, it sends commands over IP using 'http' protocols.<br>
<br>
I am currently using a shell script that calls "miranda.py" to
control my Dish ViP222k over IP using the 'upnp' protocol.<br>
<br>
If you know what upnp commands the receiver supports you can use
miranda.py as the 'upnp' CLI.<br>
<br>
I used "upnp-inspector' to get the required information but miranda
can also return a list of available commands.<br>
<br>
You can find a quick overview of what I did in my recent posts under
"UPNP Control of STB".<br>
