[mythtv-users] Actisys IR-200L and Scientific Atlanta 3100

[Carlos Cordero]

Could anybody confirm if the IR-200L and the SA3100 work together just by
putting some aluminum foil?
 
Thanks

--------------------------
Can I get pictures of the ir200l with the tin-foil, here I am making a  
list to create my own ir transmitter (I found the thread about lirc_sir  
being hardcoded at 38K and lirc_serial not supporting the ir200L) and  
all I needed was tin-foil. I'll try anything before pulling out the hot  
gun.
