Hey all..I have a ReplayTV 5040 and a Sat-A65 and I'm trying to be able to switch channels using the serial connection...
I read in the FAQ:
-----------------------------
DTSFan: I have succesfully controlled a Sony SAT-A65, Sony SAT-A55 and Sony SAT-HD100 via the serial port from ReplayTV models 20xx, 30xx and 45xx. The RCA DRD450RG did NOT work. It would power off every time I changed a channel via the ReplayTV.
-----------------------------
My problem is that I get it all set up, I go to change channels through the serial connection(low speed data connection) and although the menu comes up to change the channel, the channel changes to the very same channel i was already on..
any ideas? DTSFan? or anyone else? I did hook it up temperarly through the IR and was able to change channels that way but we need to be able to use the serial connection.
the techsupport was pretty worthless and told me just to shut it down and let it reset..
any help would be much appreciated!!
