I'm having trouble doing channel changing via Firewire, and I was
hoping you all could help.
I'm running .24-fixes on Ubuntu 10.10 on a 2006 Mac Mini (upgraded to
Core 2 Duo 2 GHz, 2 GB RAM). I'm using a Hauppauge HD-PVR connected
to my cable box (a SMT-H3050) via component, but rather than rely on
the HD-PVR IR blaster to change channels, I'd like to use firewire to
change channels.
I've followed the instructions at
http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/FireWire. When I run firewire tester I get
the following results:
Action: Test P2P connection 5 times, node 1, channel 1
P2P: Testing...Success, 69 packets received
P2P: Testing...Success, 158 packets received
P2P: Testing...Success, 52 packets received
P2P: Testing...Success, 106 packets received
P2P: Testing...Success, 74 packets received
I added in the vendor and model ID of my cable box to 6200ch and
compiled and installed it.
When I try changing channels, I get the following message:
Could not find Motorola DCT-6200 on the 1394 bus.
Any ideas on why it's not working or what I need to do to fix it
would be most appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
