[QUOTE="trig42, post: 216219, member: 62330"] Thanks mcraenz. I have the blaster plugin setup, and via the plugin setup thing, it changes channels on the Sky decoder fine (using the test function). So, If I manually add the channels with the right channel numbers, it will automatically blast them?? If so, then that's very cool. Will this also work if the channel is chosen via EPG? I feel I'm getting close to going live! This brings me to my next question ("stop with the questions already!" I hear you say!!) How do I organise the Program Guide? - I have changed the order under channels in TVServer, but doesn't seem to make much difference - I would like it to be as close as possible to SKY's EPG (Wife may not even notice when I change over :)) And, once that is done, can I also select a channel by typing in it's channel number on my remote - and is this the same channel number as in the Channel setup? (this is important for WAF - that's how she does it now with Sky - she only watches about 5 channels). DrLurch: I installed IR Server Suite by and-81. Seems to be the business.
