DirecTV Serial Control -- new issue with 5.0?

Hey Everyone -

I recently upgraded to SageTV 5 from 4. One of my sources is a DirecTV box, controlled via Serial on COM1. What I"ve noticed is that since the upgrade, channels do not change properly. When I looked into it further, it looks like Sage sends the digits of the channel, but does not send "Enter". So if I change to a 4-digit channel it works fine, but a 3 digit channel does not. For instance, if I want to watch NFL Network, I select it, sage sends 212 to the DirecTV box, but no enter. The DirecTV box displays "-212" for a while, then times out, never changing the channel.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks.

-Justin
