[QUOTE="milhouse, post: 476811, member: 26653"] Sure, you could do this. IR Server Suite will let you record the converter box's remote signal and use it to change channel on the converter box. (Assuming you can tune it without using a decimal or dash.) But really - IR blasting is spotty at best. Did this with my DISH satellite receiver for a while. Nothing more irritating that having the wrong channel recorded. I would suggest that its time to retire the PVR-500 and replace with a digital tuner card. Plug the antenna right into the tuner card instead of trying to go through a converter box first. It's easier and will have much better picture quality. Not to mention you could capture the HD source. [/QUOTE]
