It looks like I'm going to reprogram a restaurant/bar system with 20 sources and 57 TVs all because some of the source satellite boxes have been changed and they need updated IR drivers but the original programmer has supposedly lost the code - sigh.?
?
The system uses the Just Add Power AV over IP stuff I'm familiar with. But I did notice on my visit this morning that there are 8 of the small Directv boxes which only have satellite, HDMI out and power connected but these are all being controlled...somehow. I didn't find any DTV stuff on a network scan and nothing in the IP table. I should have also done a WHO command but forgot to in case there was any direct socket stuff going on that could explain it. But weirdly when I was connected looking at the files on the Pro3 hoping in vain to find the source code .zip file, I did see a .dll called something like DirectvShef. I know Shef refers to the old serial command set you could send through the USB. So really curious how they are achieving control. I thought it might have been CEC control from the Just Add Power encoders, but it doesn't look like they can do that. Any suggestions gratefully received.

9 Dish boxes were removed and in their place are now something called Roberts 3Path boxes. These are for sport content only. I am looking for an IR driver in case anyone has one. On site the remotes there are all bluetooth and paired to each individual box, but the boxes do have IR windows and an IR remote exists, but they don't have one on site. Thx in advance
