[QUOTE="CanadianEh, post: 833048, member: 114499"] Thanks, Toricred. I think I have most of it figured out now. I have a single HD-PVR configured with all of my DirecTV channels, and channel-changing working through the ethernet utility you mentioned. I woul dhave never figured this out if I hadn't read your own support posts on here :) I guess it pays not to be the trailblazer ;) What I cannot determine is the following: - IRSS - Do I want this installed in Application mode, or as a windows service? I have it working in application mode right now, but I'm curious what happens when I reboot my server - as I don't log onto the box usually. I know a Windows service would auto-start, but I read you ran into some kind of a compatibility issue there. To be clear, right now, I am only using the Ethernet-based channel changing for DirecTV - I'm not using IRSS for any other purpose on the server. Lastly, I need to start setting up the second HD-PVR with the same channels as the original one. I used the SchedulesDirect plugin to create the channels for me last time, but I'm guessing I will need to manually create them for my second HD-PVR. I need to research that more. Anyway, thank you again for publishing those instructions earlier in this thread. You are a lifesaver ;) I hope to be off of SageTV fully by the end of the weekend. SageTV was a great program, however not being able to buy client licenses, ceasing of development, and the fact that my HD100 box now is freezing my server on a daily basis tells me that it's time to move on to MediaPortal :) :thx: [/QUOTE]
