Hi guys,

I've searched around for how to do this, but I can't seem to find a thread with all of the information, just hints. I have a directv box. I see there is a plugin, which is currently non-functional, that allows me to change channels on my settop box. Assuming that is fixed at some point, how do I tell MP to change the channel on my settop box instead of on the tuner? I also cannot seem to make the tuner lock to channel 4 (I'm connected via coax). This is the big stumbling block in my usage of MP. I've managed to set up the EPG. Thanks for any help.
