Can you post a good chunk for your log files for us to look at?
It was the back-end restart that was needed.
When I first built the box back in Dec., I'd pre-empted myself and put the name of the script 'skychannel' in the config. The box has been up & down a fair bit since then, but for the past week or so has been pretty much up constantly.
Of course, when it didn't work, the first thing I tried was specifying the path by hand (of course: root doesn't have /usr/local/bin in PATH, so I needed to). That setting stood, but wasn't used till the back-end restart. *Then* the script got called and channel-change happened.
Two issues, now:
a) in Live TV, myth seems to assume that the 'tuner' is still on the same setting to which myth set it, so when I go back in later it doesn't 'change channel' (i.e., call the script). In my case, that means it fails to turn on the digibox if I've turned it off in the meantime.
b) I set a dummy test recording up last night, and I seem to have an hour of black; the digibox was off when I got up this morning, so I guess the script borked again, but I need to test it again a couple of times. I'll grab any relevant logs before I report back.
On a side note (if anyone's still reading this :-) ): anyone using an RGB->S-Video converter? The one I've got *works*, but the output is pretty pants; everything's *far* too bright/colourful, and fiddling with ivtv's settings can't really fix it again as too much info.'s been lost in the high brightness. Beginning to think I'll be better off using composite video ...
