Set top stoped changing channels

Hello all
I have 2 pvr 150's . One is connected directly to coax card #2, and one is connected to the s-video coming from a pioneer set top box card #1. I am using the hauppauge ir blaster to control the set top box. I posted an issue last week, where my tunners didn't seem to be switching between one another the way I expected them to. Someone suggested checking my channel lineups on both sources.. I did. They were wrong. Problem solved. I would swear that it was working correctly for at least a couple days. The channels are correct on both sources now. However, when I am viewing card #1, it won't change the channels. It just sits there. I went through the ir blaster setup again, and the setup program will change the channels. So it seems like suddenly sage tv doesn't want to play with it. I test it as such. I have hbo on the set top tuner, channel 301, I have have also disabled channel 60 on that tuner. So if I want it to switch to the anolog tuner I punch in 60 and that works.. once I am on the tuner I can change to all the channels that card supports. I punch in 301 and it switches to the tuner #1, but it just stays on channel 2. When I change channels, sage thinks it changes channels, but it really doesn't.

The only other thing that I would mention is that when I go into Source Details, the tuner control is Hauppgauge IR blaster stubdevice. If I go into that and click test infrared code, there is nothing in the list. I really don't know if there was anything there before. I do know it was working before I messed with the channel lineups because when I does work the cable box channel banner comes up for a second.

Sorry for the long post just trying to get all the details out there.

I am not sure if you stated this, sorry if you did. But did you ever get the IR blaster to work? One more thing, what STB are you using? My Verizon supplied one took awhile to get it to work.

First thing I would try is to disable the second capture card to test with. See if you are able to get blasting to work.

The ir blaster was working fine. Sagetv was changing the channels fine. If I change sage to workin in non service mode. Then it will change the channels. Unfortunetly, I get a playback error when trying to view any video in non service mode. So I am not sure what has happened to make the ir blaster stop workin in service mode.

I would submit a support request on tuning in service mode. There is no reason it shouldn't work.
