<br>node. A few suggestions:<br><br>* Do you need to use sa3250ch.c to change channels? If you don't<br> specify a channel changing utility in mythtv-setup, can mythbackend<br> handle the changing on its own? (I use 6200ch.c
only because it may<br> be slightly more reliable than mythbackend doing it itself, but am<br> not sure I can prove this.)<br>* You might have to manually hardwire the two boxes' node numbers into<br> two different copies of the utility. (If you don't know how, I hope
<br> someone else can step up.) Call them sa3250ch-1.c and sa3250ch-3.c,<br> then tell mythtv-setup to invoke each.<br>* 0.20 might have fixed this; presumably we'll see soon.<br><br>--<br>Yeechang Lee <<a href="mailto:ylee@pobox.com">

That the sa3250ch did not support specific nodes. I guess I will take a look at the source code and see if I can see how to specify a particular node. If anyone else out there is better with c and using the sa3250hd box and wants to help I would be very grateful.
