Since DirecTV last update (6/7/05) I have been unable to switch to
local channels through my ReplayTV. They come up on the program guide
and I can switch to them via satellite receiver/controller, but not
through ReplayTV. I contacted DirecTV and the "advanced support" told
me the the new update disabled the low speed data port which I use.
They hoped to have it taken care of soon, but offered no immediate
solution. (I have a DirecTV D10 receiver that does not use an IR
blaster, but a serial port from the ReplayTv and an adaptor that allows
it to plug into the low speed data port on the DirecTV receiver. It's
called a RJ11-9 adaptor or something like that.) Has anyone else
experienced this?
