Mini Remote control problems

I am trying to control my Minis via the Network Remote Control capability with my custom AV automation system. The Mini allows this capability to be enabled just like the Premieres, Roamio's, and several earlier versions of Tivo DVR's.

However, it only seems to allow a subset of the control capability that is available on it's big brothers. The IRCODE commands work, but SETCH doesn't. It returns an error message, stating an illegal channel was input.

** RANT ON **

I have tried contacting Tivo support but so far I have gotten less than useful replies. Their first reply congratulated me for my being able to get it working this far "to the best of my ability". They then suggested I check with other users and to "definitely explore online resources". Their second reply was to flatly state that the Mini doesn't support network features, which is absolute BS. I had to write back a basic tutorial on how to do this for them - it's just like on the Roamio!

** RANT OFF **

Anyway, does anyone out there have any input on why the Mini works the way it does with Network Remote Control. I'd really like to get the SETCH command to work, since it is pretty basic to my AV automation operation.

Thanks

Mike
