[QUOTE="pantner, post: 479812, member: 95738"] Ok, setting up a computer with Media Portal. It has 2xDVICO DVB-T Tuners and a Hauppauge PVR-150 which a Foxtel STB plugs into. Unfortunately the PVR-150 is a few years old (4?) and the IR Reciever/Transmitter appears to have been lost (am still looking :p) so, i would like Media Portal to be able to change Foxtel channel by itself when there is a scheduled recording. I am working on the guild, etc, at the moment. I have seen lots of cheap USB-IR things on ebay...will they do it? I have also seen the IR-UART thing...looks the goods, but a lot more then i would be able to spend on it. i personally have the first Microsoft MCE Remote control at home, which works well, but its mine and i don't want to give it away :P does anyone have any suggestions???? :thx: [/QUOTE]
