Will USB-UIRT work with GBPVR?

[bits]

I have a PVR250 and I capture shows from my local cable company. My cable package is part analog and digital. The analog channels do not require a cablebox and so I have the coax hooked directly to the PVR250, so changing channels on a cablebox for scheduled recordings is not necessary.

For the digital channels I have a cablebox hooked to the 'S' video on the PVR250. What I need is a way to change the channels on the cablebox for scheduled recordings. I have purchased a USB-UIRT for this, and my question is whether GBPVR will work with the USB-UIRT? Sage and BeyondTV both have this capability and is user selectable. Hopefully, GBPVR has something like this that is also user selectable!?

I apologize if I have posted this in the wrong place. I also did do a forum search and found several threads regarding USB-UIRT but they were either over my head or did not answer my question.

I used the USB-UIRT for about a year to change channels on my sat box before switching to analog cable. So yes it will work.

Is it user selectable from the GBPVR UI? If not, how do you get it setup? I am not familiar with Girder or xml.

Yes, its set up from the GUI. Just set the 'channel changer' to 'USB-UIRT' when you create your capture device, then click the settings button and have it learn your device.

sub,

Thanks! I will give GBPVR a try in the next day or two and let you know how it turned out.
