[mythtvnz] How do I get a PVR150 to talk to my TelstraClear/Saturn cable box?

[Nigel Bond]

Hi,

I had been wondering about this for a while, so I just ordered an IRBlaster.
Hopefully it will be a synch as my wife does get upset when I tell her it
will take a couple of hours to configure something like this and then
disappear for a week :)

Thanks for the info

Nigel

Take a look in this thread, there is an example of a script 

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/mythtvnz/207363

For which I am grateful and might get around to implementing. It also
has the tip that sending volume up unmutes the sky box. Didn't know
that, and it always worried me how to ensure it wasn't muted.
