So I butchered a phone cord for my myth remote...I'm trying to get the
pinouts figured out. According to http://www.pcmx.net/dtvcon/
the serial port->data port pins are as follows:

9pinSerial->DataPort
5->1
2->2
3->4

Can anyone confirm/deny this?

I hooked up myth with the above, and when I run the sony.pl script I get
: Error (0x00)

I'm assuming the syntax is 'sony.pl 354'. What have I got wrong?
