Hi,
Last night I setup an IR blaster on my myth box (knoppmyth R5A16) using
this guide, http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=4462
I got to the point of making a channel_change.sh script which works
flawlessly on the command line. But when I put the change command into
the correct box in myth-setup (and reboot to make sure it's picked up by
mythbackend) It doesn't change the channels. The script has its
permissions opened right up and is executable
James,
Please post your channel change script. It could be not using full
pathnames to irsend or something similar in the script, so that it
works from the script when run from the shell, but not from within
MythTV.

Nick,
I dont think thats the problem, This is the script I'm using, its
straight from the guide I used. Before I commented out the last line, I
would get an error that SELECT wasn't a valid code in the command line,
and the myth backend log would say that the script exited with error
code somethingorrather.
#!/bin/sh
STB_NAME=DCT2000
for digit in $(echo $1 | sed -e 's/./& /g'); do
irsend --device=/dev/lircd1 SEND_ONCE $STB_NAME $digit
sleep 0.4
done
#irsend --device=/dev/lircd1 SEND_ONCE $STB_NAME SELECT
I just had a thought that my channel setup might be wrong. The channel
setup window is very confusing with what goes where. I have the channel
number I want to change to external STB to in the Channel Number field
on the first page of channel setup. Should I also be putting it in the
Frequency box on the second page?
