When changing channel affects other HD200

[Hunter69]

I have 2 HD200 and 1 HD300. I started with a fresh install of my whs sage server. For tuners I have 1 collossus and 1 HDPVR . Since I have completed this fresh install, I have noticed that when I change a channel on 1 extender(does not seem to matter which one), it will change the channel on one of the other extenders. I have never had this happen before. Does anyone have any suggestions to resolve this issue.

R u running the latest beta server AND the latest beta firmware on all HDx00 extenders?

[Hunter69]

I am running the latest sage 7 (7.1.9). I do keep all the firmwares up to date (beta firmwares). I will have to double check but I am 99% sure they are up to date. I will tell you the exact senario:
1. John (for example) is watching TV A via sage extender in the living room (hd200).
2. Jim (for example) turns on the bedroom extender to watch via tv B (doesn't seem to matter if it is a HD200 or a HD300). Jim starts watching live tv. Jim changes the channel on TV B sagetv extender. The channel on TV A channel also changes.
3. John can change his channel back via TV A extender without affecting TV B.


I have never observed TV A extender affect TV B or TV C extender but I have observed both TV B and TV C extender affect TV A.

Thanks for taking the time to help

So I checked the firmware and it is the most current beta firmware. 20100909. Today I observed extender A (living room)affect extender B (bedroom). Then I observed Extender B affect extender A.

This seems to be like the client is not locking the tuner that the person is watching.

So both extenders are watching live TV. Are you sure you are changing to a channel that is available on both tuners? If your HD-PVR is blasting to a STB are you sure the IR blast isn't spilling out to the other STB? If you have 2 Hauppague devices in one system only one of the IR blasters will work. (Either the Collosus or the HD-PVR IR.) You'll need something like a USB-UIRT that can handle blasting up to 3 separate devices.

Or it could be that one tuner was recording, and the other tuner was used for LiveTV by both extender...

I have a usb uirt with three zones. I am going to take a close look at the channel lineup for each tuner.

Well after some troubleshooting, I figured out this was my fault. I have a usbuirt multi-zoned. I picked the wrong zone for one of my tuners and it was sending the IR to both receivers. Sometimes I feel so stupid.

But you figured it out and fixed it. Good for you.
