<div>I recently switched from Directv to cable and I am
running into problems setting up channel changing on the
RNG-110 box that is hooked up to a HDPVR. I have a PCI
firewire card connected to the box but I can't seem to get
any response from the box's firewire port. When the cable
box is plugged into the computer dmesg reports the
following:<br>
<br>

When I run plugreport this is the output:<br>
<br>

From other posts I have seen it seems like there should be more
information there under node 1. I have compiled 6200ch and
mythchanger and neither seem to be able to interact with the
box. 6200ch freezes in an unkillable state and mythchanger just
reports "Invalid changer option". I can see from the wiki that
other users have successfully changed channels and recorded over
firewire with this box so am I just doing something wrong or
does my cable company have the firewire port disabled? Any
pointers anybody can give me would be useful, I have used Myth
for years but this is my first foray into firewire.<br>

My RNG-150 (Comcast) shows this:<br>
<br>

On the RNG-150 I have given up on trying to get the channel changer
to work - I use an IR Blaster. I record the video perfectly through
firewire but I have to tune the channel through the IR Blaster
(iguana IR <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.iguanaworks.net">http://www.iguanaworks.net</a> $40).<br>
