Extender Tivo to ViewSat Extreme Satellite

I have a normal TIVO set to dish network. I have a Viewsat 2000 Extreme Satellite Receiver. It would seem someone could sell tons of IR Extenders that used a PIC or other microprocessor to decode the TIVO’s IR emitter and recode to Viewsat or some other FTA receiver. This hardware solution makes it easy to convert from one format to another without a computer or all this reverse engineering. Just use Dip Switches to select the in and out codes.

Why though?

There are no FTA channels on the TiVo guide anyway, and using such a receiver to get Dish is piracy.
