I am thinking about switching from cable to satellite and I have a few
questions. For specific reasons, I am interested in Dish Network only.
Is there a tuner card that will allow me to use MythTV with Dish Network
(preferred) or do I have to use the infrared port? If the latter, is
there a more reliable serial port?
As far as I know, there are no set top boxes available directly from Dish that
have a serial control for changing channels. I believe that it's possible to get
a receiver off eBay to do that, but results are a little hazy.
It's not what you're looking to hear, but every other satellite and cable provider
has better methods for interfacing with myth and/or tivo. I had no problems at
all interfacing with serial to DirecTV and Comcast boxes.
