If you see light with your digital camera like you said you did then your problem is not your cable.
But good luck.

Thanks for the config file JJ, I tried the DISH remote one, but it is
still the same.  What remote code is that supposed to be on, the
default (1)?

I think I'm going to have to build my own cable and ir blaster.  I
don't trust this one.  Something is strange here.

thanks,

Hi John,
yes, the expressvu box is the same as dish, I'm told.  That would be
great if you could send me your ledxmitd.conf.

thanks,
Pb

(Assuming you're using a Dish Network box)
I wound up using a JVC file with a remote named JVC_RAW in it.
I can't find the file now, but I can email you my ledxmitd.conf if
you'd like.

Regards,
  JJ

Hi,
I bought an irblaster from http://www.irblaster.info/, nice looking
unit.  I followed the irblaster howto to the letter, and everything
seems to be working ok, BUT no channels change.
-ledxmitd is logging events
-infra red pulses coming out of the device when I run the
change_channel scripts (I checked with a digital camera)
-no channel changing at all!!
-tried http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/echostar/
-tried http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/expressvu/
-tried http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/dishnet/

I am starting to think that either some settings for my serial port
are not right, or the irblaster is not the right one for the
expressvu.

The echostar DBS config looks like the right one.  I am not sure what
is meant by the following comment though:
"You may have to play with the one/zero widths to get it working
on a particular computer."  (see below)

I don't know what the one/zero settings should be or what they mean
anyway.

I think my param.h  HZ setting is 1000.  Is there another place to
set
this in the linux kernel?

Any ideas would be appreciated,
thanks,
Pb

I have changed the remote code set to #6 and #9, since the config
offers both.
