I have a satellite receiver who will not automatically switch on when you
start sending it a channel number over the IR blaster. I saw some remarks to
the effect that Media Center would not be able to detect on/off state, but at
the same time setup is quite capable of finding on which connector the
receiver is sending its signal, so there you are:
When you want to change/select a channel:
1) Check your known input for presence of a signal
2) a- Signal there, proceed
b- no signal, send on/off code, wait a sec or three
c- when in doubt, assume all is ok
3) now start sending channel number
Simple, I'ld say. If I had the source I would take a shot at it myself.
Cheers,
Bert
