[mythtv-users] Samsung SMT-C5320 STB support for channel changer script

[Fred]

Oh, I forgot to mention that Samsung has on their website a collection of
zipped "open source" files, which contain something called busybox. I guess
this is supposed to help developers somehow? I downloaded and installed
busybox, but I have no idea how it relates to the STB. It seems to be a
stripped-down Linux command interpreter.
