Yes. I have gotten mythTV [LIRC] to switch channels on this box. Use the
remotes/scientific atlanta/explorer 2200.conf file for lirc. Make sure at add
the line 'frequency 57600' around where the gap info and stuff is. I found
this out by installing the actisys in windows and doing some tests with windows
programs. The default frequency for lirc if nothing is specified is 38000.
The Actisys200L as described in the docs does not work for this box as far as I
can tell. Search the list for [actisys and lirc]. I believe the lirc_sir
driver in lirc is hardcoded to frequency 38000, so its a no-go with these
boxes. There are a few posts on it.
The solution is to build your own transmitter circuit:
http://www.lirc.org/improved_transmitter.html It is not that hard. I built mine in 3 hours and it worked 2nd time. 1st time
I had the LED polarity reversed. Works like a champ now. I was not able to
use the change_channel.csh method with mythtv 0.8 either, it seemed to worked
with liveTV, but scheduled shows would only show a gren or blue box that I
could not delete [backend segfault?]. I put the channel.pl script directly in
the backend setup window and it worked marvelously.
Good luck, Mike
