D'oh!  What specifically do you mean by a 'web service interface' to 
your STB?
Am I missing something?

The best I can muster with the Dish ViP222k is control via UPNP using 
"miranda.py".  Which has been sporadic, although that may be related to 
the Dish device using 'sling' across my UPS.

While some of the UPNP commands return references to a resultant xml 
file (e.g. GetAuthChannelList) I have not found any 'http' way to 
accomplish anything similar (channel change, etc).

FYI: So far (2 recordings) the HD-PVR has done okay without v4l2-ctl 
calls on kernel v3.5.0-48.  Too tired to remember if that was before or 
after my reboots dealing w/ HDPVR and lirc.
