[mythtv-users] Configuring IR transmitter for changing channels

[Tomas Roos]

Hello.

Since I use my Digital Terrestrial receiver to recieve television I
only use the composite or S-video input (not the tuner) on my PVR-150
card to record programs (which by the way works excellent).

Now I wish to have tabloids etc in MythTV to be able to choose a
program for recording. I want MythTV to trigger an external program to
send an IR signal to my receiver and change the channel

How I send IR signals I already know, it is quite easy with lirc or
similar programs but do I have to have several channels configured in
my MythTV to be able to use tabloids or how does it work? Is there a
howto on this subject? Has anyone else done this before?
