[QUOTE="knathraak, post: 166976, member: 53915"] I've attached the perl script that I use for changing channels on my RCA DirecTV receiver. The script is pretty hackish, but I'm not the original author. I just tweaked it to work with my system, and have never been motivated to rewrite it. Below is the output from the script which includes several extra print statements I used to make sure I understood what it was actually writing on the wire. I left them in the script. Also, in order to get the output, I had to short circuit the call to get_reply, since i didn't actually have the satellite receiver hooked up. Turning on DSS @send is 0xFA 0x02 SEND: 0xFA [�] 0x2 [] Changing channel to 233. $_ is 00e9 $n1 $n2 is 00 and e9 @send is 0xFA 0x46 00 e9 0x0 SEND: 0xFA [�] 0x46 [F] 0x0 [] 0xE9 [�] 0x0 [] Clearing OSD @send is 0xFA 0x06 SEND: 0xFA [�] 0x6 [] Hope this helps.
