Hauppauge HD PVR (5 Viewers)

[BKCH]

This is pretty exciting!! My HD PVR arrived today - can't wait to get home and plug it in What SVN should I run??

I currently use an IR blaster to change channels but I am happy to test initially without a blaster (or if someone can point me in the direction of RS-232 setup information I'd actually prefer to move to that method!!)

I can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to better quailty cable in MP

What SVN should I run??

My code isn't in SVN yet, still working out some issues.

No worries sorry for being too keen

Garry,

Will the DirecTVTune plugin you wrote work in this HD-PVR testing scenario to change channels?

Does it support multiple STBs? & TV Server 1 RC2?

I have 2 COM ports available on my server PC. If you think your plug-in will work I'll pick up 2 null modem cables and 2 serial-to-USB cables to plug into my DirecTV H20 STBs (they only have the USB ports).

I just found the old tvserver DirecTVTune plugin I wrote and used to use. It supports multiple STBs but I'll have to see if it works with newer receivers. I'll test it with a H21 in a few minutes.

BTW - not sure if you're after another tester but happy to help however I can. Picked up a USB to serial converter on the way home so I can test that as well - although I have a foxtel (Pace) STB.

Plugin sounce & binary is attached. I think it will work with your STBs.
