[mythtv-users] FW: Motorola DCT2000 and serial cable.

[pixel at hourglassone.com]

Let me know if you have any success..

Try:

snifferapp /dev/cua0 | hexdump -v

where snifferapp is the name of your sniffer, which like any good unix app
supports sending data to stdout, and /dev/cua0 is the path to your serial
device. :)

Cheers,
Aaron
