What's it doing wrong? Is it just not changing the channel at all?

[sonic40]

Some of these RCA recievers need a 4 digit manual entry. SageTV only gives 3 digits.

Can't you change that by changing the value of the third number (after the name of the device) in the .IR file?

Yes you can. :)

What do I change the 3rd value in the .ir file to in order to send a 0 before the channel command?

[Narflex]

The third value is the number of digits in a channel tune, if you increase this by one, then it'll insert a 0 in front of every tune request.
