I can change channels using ComController but I can't send command line commands such as "zir 5-2" which does do a channel change properly.
Using DirecTV.exe I can send the same command properly but it precedes it by FA AA 06 which messes up my STB.

Using ComController it changes channel properly; using DirecTV, it doesn't because of the extra characters sent before the "ZIR 5" command.
1) Is there a way to send commands to com-controller directly?
2) How can I block the 3 extra characters sent by DirecTV?
