[QUOTE="LeeTXJD, post: 1177101, member: 124348"] I have confirmed I can change channels over the network by entering a url with the following formula: [URL]http://IPHR20-44:8080/tv/tune?major=CHANNEL&clientAddr=MINIGENIEMAC[/URL] Where: IPHR20-44 is the ip address of the main genie dvr CHANNEL is the channel number MINIGENIEMAC is the MAC address for the mini genie without any colons. The minigenie has its own IP address on the client table on my router (but is inaccessible at that address) so its MAC address is discoverable. The address looks like the following (Note all addresses are fictitious) [URL='http://192.168.1.1:8080/tv/tune?major=202&clientAddr=AA12BB34CC56DD']http://192.168.1.1:8080/tv/tune?major=202&clientAddr=AA12BB34CC56[/URL] That will change the channel on the mini-genie client. However, if you try that syntax for the main genie dvr - it will result in an error. To change the channel on the main dvr all you need is [URL]http://192.168.1.1:8080/tv/tune?major=202[/URL] I did not have to modify any settings on either device to make this work. So, I believe the SHEF is already enabled. Perhaps this is b/c having whole home service is enabled for the genie client boxes. Just in case, my hardware is an HR44/700 (Main DVR) - and C51-500 (Mini-Genie). I hope this helps [/QUOTE]
