No problem. The Sky decoder at my house has the video out available as
SCART, composite and UHF. It records with the PVR-150 fine. One day I
will sort out an ir blaster to change channels on the sky box.
At the moment I use sky's "booking" system where the decoder will
switch to a program a few minutes before it comes on. I just have to
hope no-one has left the sky decoder on "mute" or "off".
