I have a successful conversion from direct cable connection with 2  
Hauppauge (1x150, 1x250) to a connection using 2 Pace DTA devices and  
an IR transmitter.

I purchased a Microsoft USB IR receiver with 2 separate blaster  
ports.  Configured LIRC to send channel changes using a combination of  
the procedures and the raw codes for the comcast remote contained here:

and here:

I did have to modify the irsend command to specify the full path to  
irsend (/usr/local/bin/irsend in my case), otherwise Mythtv popped an  
error when trying start LiveTV.
