I have a closet that currently has the following

2 Direct TV HD receivers
1 Direct TV analog receiver
Zantech IR Connecting Block
Octavia 4x4 HDMI Matrix switch

I also have 2 HD TV's and 1 analog tv and next to each
tv I have an IR receiver. My problem is, whatever I do
to 1 Direct TV receiver I do to all of them because all
of them use the same IR codes.

You need IR routing

Xantech IR block has
4 discreet channels,

you have an IR repeater

the problem with that is you
can only control that receiver from one IR receiver. The
Octavia switch allows you to view any input on any or
all of the outputs. Does anyone know if there is any way
to change the IR codes on the receivers? Direct TV says
no, but I'm hoping for some type of work around.

There's no changing the IR program within the device
One way is to get a receiver from someone other then Direct
TV, but I don't know of another vendor besides Direct
TV. I had a TIVO at one time but they don't work with
Direct TV anymore.

Thanks,
Gary

And yes we need model #'s on every piece of equipment

The optimist claims the glass is half full; the pessimist claims it is half empty. An engineer observes that the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

Ps, you can't fix stupid
