Re: [mythtv-users] changing channels on Directv D10 receiver
If people are interested, I could host it somewhere (so that one does not have to search through the archive to find it.) Also, I found the origional post I got it from.

I've gotten RCA.pl to work after remaking the serial cable, but being perl it is extremely slow to change channels.

Re: [mythtv-users] changing channels on Directv D10 receiver
Or, if you search the archive, I recently posted a C program that I've
had better luck with than the RCA.pl script. You might give that a
try.

I use a serial cable from http://www.dtvcontrol.com/. I also use this
script to change the channels, with the following modification
http://tarek.2y.net/myth/RCA.pl/
Change my $serial=init_serial("/dev/cua1","9600"); to
my $serial=init_serial("/dev/ttyS0","9600"); for COM1
my $serial=init_serial("/dev/ttyS1","9600"); for COM2
So you were able to make RCA.pl work with a serial cable? I'll have to
review my wiring. I wonder if the serial port on the receiver is not
enabled or if you had to enable the port on the D10 some how.

Make sure the user is a member of the uucp group, that was the only
other issue I had with fedora.

So you were able to make RCA.pl work with a serial cable? I'll have to
review my wiring. I wonder if the serial port on the receiver is not
enabled or if you had to enable the port on the D10 some how.
