It works! I have serial control working on the DirecTV D11 box (with USB port control)<br>
<br>
I got a BOFA-810 USB->Serial adapter and coupled it with a null
modem cable (well, a couple 9-pin dsub->RJ45 adapters and an
ethernet cable carefully configured). I had to severely modify the
directv.pl script to allow it to work at 115200 with hardward flow
control, but it seems to be partially working now (power on/off, osd
on/off, channel changing all work). I'll post a copy of the script once
I clean it up some more<br>

I just switched from comcast cable to DirecTV (not my choice) and<br>
I knew I would need to get an IR Blaster to change channels. I can't<br>
find an lirc config for my stb, though:<br>
<br>
Model (as far as I can tell) is DirecTV D11<br>
<br>
I see that most DirecTV users have serial control - which would work<br>
out great if I had an STB that had that input, especially since I already<br>
have cables that will work.<br>
<br>
I'd try to record my own lirc config, but the only IR receiver I have is<br>
for the hauppauge card, so it's RC5.<br>
<br>
Anybody know where I can find a config for the D11? Thanks!<br><span>

a quick search on Google
(<a href="http://www.sbcatest.com/installers_help_d10.pdf" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">http://www.sbcatest.com/installers_help_d10.pdf</a>) , it looks like your
<span id="st" name="st" class="st0">D11</span> has a USB port on the back and you can buy a USB to serial adapter
(Page 9). I'm not too sure if the included DTV channel change script
will work with the <span id="st" name="st" class="st0">D11</span>, but if not, I'm sure a few modifications will
allow it work.<br>
<br>
Hope this gets you started,<br>
