[QUOTE="garry, post: 193491, member: 17152"] I've been using MediaPortal with DirecTV for more than a year. I originally write the DirecTV Tuner plugin and am now running TV3 (the client/server version of MediaPortal) and wrote a similar plugin for the TV Server. It basically tells your DirecTV box(es) to tune to chanel X when you select channel X in the MediaPortal TV guide. Some DirecTV receivers have a serial port that is not a regular DB9 connector. See [url]http://www.dtvcontrol.com/page.aspx?content=compat[/url] for some (outdated) details. There are also some receivers that have a USB port, there is a USB to serial adapter that can be used with some of them. What model receiver(s) do you have? [/QUOTE]
