[QUOTE="chesh, post: 384840, member: 88249"] Here's my first impressions of using the Hauppauge blaster plugin with 2 cards.... First, I had to move the IR blaster to my HVR-1600 as when I tried to change channels with the HD-PVR, it wasn't doing anything. Quickly troubleshooted by plugging into the HVR-1600 and all of a sudden it was blasting again. Dunno if this has to do with it being the second card installed or that on board takes over external plugged in. Another thing I noticed, and I'll still have to play with it more, is that the HD-PVR channels are considered analog with the default frequency as 0 but a channel # listed. It knows to zap the box via this channel number. Analog channels from the HVR-1600 are, of course, also listed as analog but with a frequency and a channel matching where it has to be tuned on the card. As I was playing with switching back and forth between HD-PVR channels and HVR-1600 analog channels, it sometimes would blast the STB when I was changing analog channels on the HVR-1600 but then would switch over to the HVR-1600 and tune it in. Almost like it was getting confused as to which it should be doing. I'm going to say to take the analog accidental switching with a grain of salt as I'm still matching clearQAM, analog, and HD-PVR channels together to get SchedulesDirect to correct the line-up. I'll post more info as I have it available. [/QUOTE]
