I copied a couple of scripts from the URL:
http://losdos.dyndns.org:8080/public/mythtv-info/MythTV_DISH_IR_LED_TX_via_Modified_LIRC.html
The two scripts are dish_chan.sh and dish_info.sh.
dish_chan.sh changes the channel ok when run from a command line and
also when executed by mythtv.
dish_info.sh does it's thing ok when dish_chan.sh is run from a command
line. But when dish_chan.sh is started by mythtv, the "info" display
failes to show up on the recording.
Anyone have any ideas why? and what to do about it?
*_HERE ARE THE SCRIPTS:
_**_
_*cat /usr/local/bin/dish_chan.sh
#!/bin/sh
# SCRIPT 1: change the channel
#
# REMOTE_NAME=JVC_RAW
REMOTE_NAME=dish
for digit in $(echo $1 | sed -e 's/./& /g'); do
irsend SEND_ONCE $REMOTE_NAME $digit
# sleep 0.4 # note this may have to be adjusted up for some models
sleep 0.3 # note this may have to be adjusted up for some models
done
irsend SEND_ONCE $REMOTE_NAME select
#
# asynchronously display the program info screen
if [ -s /usr/local/bin/dish_info.sh -a -x /usr/local/bin/dish_info.
cat /usr/local/bin/dish_info.sh >> /home/gary/Desktop/ditest.txt
#!/bin/sh
# SCRIPT 2: display the info screen
#
#REMOTE_NAME=JVC_RAW
REMOTE_NAME=dish
# wait for mythtv to begin recording
sleep 1
# now display the info screen for N seconds
irsend SEND_ONCE $REMOTE_NAME info
sleep 5
# and cancel back out of the info screen
irsend SEND_ONCE $REMOTE_NAME cancel
