I bit the bullet and bought an IR Blaster... electronics just isn't my
thing :)

Until it arrives I just have the 'args' part of the tuner set to
'/bin/true' and I have to change the channel manually but all is

BTW, are you still working on the TV viewing plugin inside the
tv/plugins directory? It's not really working, and you may want to use
the majority of the code from the normal video plugin 

(i.e. inherit that plugin and just add methods for the channels)
