I have a DirecTV box (Samsung) and tried for a few weeks to get the Actisys to work - I could never get it working (I could receive but not transmit). Here's what I did that has worked for 6 months now without issue: 1. Build an IR transmitter (instructions on LIRC website) or buy one from http://www.irblaster.info/ 2. Install a second LIRC instance: http://mirror.mmdsi.com/losdos.dyndns.org/public/mythtv-info/IR-BLASTER-HOWTO.html 3. Tweaked the header, one, and zero values of my remoted.conf until the channel changed worked every time (no missed digits, etc) Hope this helps!
