Subject: [mythtv-users] IR Blaster?


Currently building a MythTV setup to record from my Cable, and DirecTV
receiver.

What I don't know yet is how to control both boxes, I could control the dTV
receiver with a serial to "home control"  cable, but I leave my cable box
hanging.

I would need a IR blaster or Infrared blaster/sender to control both and
maybe a third cable box in the future? (this part is a little confusing as
the commands Blasted to the Cable1 box and Cable2 box from the same cable
provider would interfere with eachother, anyone has a solution for this?).

What i need to know is brands and models of IR blasters that would work with
MythTV, as i dont have a clue where to look.

TIA,

Oxy.
