However, I'm not quite home yet, when I send a channel change like 531 only the first digit gets thru. If I up tha UART to 16750 or above then the first 2 chars get thru.
You may need to increase the timeout; the uinit's powered from the serial port only while the device is open, so if it exits early, the last signals don't get sent (which is why the original version has a delay as an argument).
I posted an upddated version a couple of months or so ('digibox') along with a script ('skychannel') to monitor changing the channel 'single-threadedly' and turning off after a while. I'll see if I can google an archive link before I post this.
FWIW, I've started updating the script at home to make use of an ivtvctl command that states whether there is sane input (so I know whether to send a power-on+sleep at start-up or just a channel-change).
Also, I've just got into parsing the output of mthbackend's /xml status output to see if there's a recording; I plan to poll every 5 mins. in the future and turn the Sky box off when inactive instead of simply 'after 4 hours'.
