[QUOTE="milhouse, post: 343772, member: 26653"] Most tuner cards come with an IR Blaster that can be used to change the channel on the settop box. That in combination with IR Server Suite (search the forum) works pretty well. Occassionally it'll misfire and you'll record the wrong channel, but generally pretty good. I used this myself in the past with a Dish Network 311 receiver. Some boxes (DirectTV, not sure about Dish) have a serial port that can be used to change channels more reliably. [/QUOTE]
