TvServer3 and changing channels (1 Viewer)

[jfirebau]

I have two Haupauge 150's connected to DirecTv Tuner Boxes. I have been looking at the instructions, setup, and forums all night and can't find out how to setup TvServer3 to change the channels.

I saw a plugin for Media Portal to change DirecTv boxes but it looked really old, and I didn't know if it would work as a TVServer3 plugin.

I have a perl script that changes the channel on my DirecTv boxes in this way: changeChannel XXX

Is there a way to assign a change channel external command for each Tuner Card?

This will do what you want

For each card tick 'Use pre-change command', enter the command string in the pre-change section using %2 as the channel number and tick the 'No window'

Thanks!

Thanks Trevor!

I was just about to give up on Media Portal and re-install MythTV.
