I currently have a DirecTV STB working in conjunction with a Hauppauge Colossus 2 card in my PC. I can control the STB with my keyboard and mouse (I don't use the remote) via IR-Blaster cord running from the Colossus to the STB. Works great. However, I want to change providers to Comcast and their STB is RF based, not IR, so the IR-Blaster doesn't work. How can I convert the IR-Blaster signal to RF so that it works with an RF STB? The converters I see on Amazon and elsewhere are extenders or repeaters that convert IR to RF and then back to IR, but I'm unable to find something intended to simply convert IR to RF. Any ideas?
