For some reason my lirc output has been very unreliable lately. I keep getting wrong channels, particularly sense I went to dish 301 receivers from the newer model version.
I wonder if it is a timing issue or the IR light isn't strong enough. At any rate, I thought I remembered a serial device that was perhaps a little more reliable. I was wondering if anyone has experience with dish network 301 receivers and getting two of them to reliably change the channel. I'd consider just buying something if it would solve the problem. Beyond that I guess I need to look at my circuit again. I'm using kernel 2.6.12.5 and I believe lirc-7.0 with the typical dish network instructions. I think I tried a 7.2 version but it errored so I went back. I suppose the question is whether anyone is using a recent kernel and has this setup. If so, I could perhaps compare what they have and see if I can figure out what is different... This setup used to work better before so perhaps the 301's need a brighter ir light...
