Well, I had a brain fart after I posted that... I tested the IP control using a cmd window and the string "DTVipcontrol.exe /i 192.168.xx.xxx /c 269" and both STBs would change channels correctly for 1, 2, and 3 digit channels... So, the "trigger" isn't getting from MCE to Colossus (or is it Colossus to MCE?)... Good news is my network is configured and allowing traffic to the STBs locally...Pir8Man wrote:well if you're gonna give up then thats that.
if you want to solve it. im sure we can. it's tough, but not impossible.
Yes, I uninstalled the IRSS software along with the IR software from Hauppauge. I'm using an external USB transceiver/MCE remote/Blasters and all other functions on the remote work fine, but IR control for channel changing... This USB transceiver worked fine with (2) 1850 tuners and composite RCA inputs although not HD they did have a good picture/sound...
I think my next step should be using the "hcwclear.exe" to remove all Hauppauge software and start a new, like Michelle did... I'll be back...
