i would, but I think I deleted it (ie. I can't find it...). whats funny is that now that I have a permanent Myth setup with my cable box using 6200ch to tune the channels I've noticed a lot of mis-changes. I'm sitting here ssh'd in to the machine running 6200ch over and over trying different channels (this box is p2p only which may be of issue?) and am getting qute a few mis-controled channel changes. it looks like whats happening is the box thinks it receives doubles of some numbers. This will either cause the box to think its receiving 4 or 5 numbers. ie. tell it to tune to 256 and when it errors I get: 255 <- no 6 even gets sent! 2556 = ch 6 gets tuned 25566 = ch 66 gets tuned. so far its usually the middle # that gets repeated but I've had the third number repeated occasionally. Which leads me to think that perhaps its something wrong with libavc1394/libraw1394 or the 6200ch program. -- Steve _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
