[How-To] Remote Control Signal Over Lan?

[doodlecz]

I used putty for testing and found no problem - do you have connection type set to "Raw"?

I'm afraid I don't know how to autostart the server, but some posts before geo650 wrote he was able to do it.. I hope he will describe his solution, it could be very helpful..

[geo650]

Yes, autostart is possible. As I said, I will describe it later. Unfortunately, I have some problems with creating safe environment for that. My TV was even bricked for several minutes (restarting loop). Fortunately, I knew what I did so I repaired my error quite fast with ex-link cable.

Because my method will be used for any "game", I think, I will create a new thread for this and drop a link here.
Stay tuned.

Yes, this is what I'm afraid of - no ex-link cable
Staying tuned..

Now my TV starts with 2 "games" without any problems. Remote Control Server works well, and PVR2 allows one to record any program without entering Content Library Manager. I prepared a customized PVR2 "game" that tests if there is /dev/usb/sda1 device available before it starts recording. There is also one more feature: FAV.CH button is remapped to HDMI1 (useful button for external STB/DVB-C or TV-SAT tuner users).

BTW, ex-link cable contruction is very simple. There are no passive nor active elements. Just only 3 wires and 2 connectors. Nothing more. You can make it yourself, even without soldering device. It is worth to get such cable if you want to do strange experiments

Yeah, but in fact I don't need it right now - there's still a lot of strange experiments to be done even on non-flashed FW
Btw, thanks for sharing possible solution! IMO great job!
