Hi,

Not too long ago I rewrote this plugin to be more "generic" and so it would support more boxtypes. I'm from the Netherlands though so obviously I don't own such a box. I was just trying to take care of a user on IRC which had difficulties with the original plugin.
The rewritten plugin has been tested with several boxtypes and confirmed working with them. Unfortunately the testing of the plugin came to a standstill and it was never made available publically.

The plugin is supposed to (at least) support the following boxtypes: RCA, D10-100 and D10-200. Whether your box uses an "old command set", "new commandset" or is supposed to change channels by sending "remote keypresses" to the receiver (via the serial interface).

Anyone interested is welcome to test it. Get it from here: http://scoop.cybox.nl/mediaportal/tmp/DirecTV_new.zip

Note: the DirecTV.SerialInterface.dll should go to the MP install directory, the DirecTV.TunerPlugin.dll should go into the plugins\process\ subdirectory.

If this plugin turns out to be a better incarnation than the original plugin then I'll upload it (along with the source) to the MP homepage.

Kind regards,
Michel
