[QUOTE="bolders, post: 273259, member: 42721"] Hi mate Have a look at IR server suite plugin (by and-81). This will enable you to blast IR signals to your STB from Media Portal. I believe that it supports USBUIRT. I use it with an MCE remote and IR blaster to switch my NTL box and it is awsome - I cant recommend it enough. You can teach it the remote commands from your sky remote and do loads of other stuff. In order to get it to work you will need to enter all you channels into the TV server. This can be time consuming but once youve done it you can export the channel list in case you should ever need to reinstall or upgrade to a new svn for example. You set up each channel exactly as shown in the second picture you have posted but in the channel box (where you have 4) you enter the sky channel number. Make sure you map al channels to your PVR 150 card then when you go into TV guide in MP you will see all the channels listed. In order to get channel data you can use xmltv which when configured will get channel information from radio times. Again this can take some time to setup and figure out how it works but its well worth it - it provides channel information for all but a few of the channels I receive. There is a fair amount of stuff to figure out to get it to work but its fairly easy once youve done it few times. If you're interested in taking this route its probably best you get the software and have a play. If you get stuck just add to this thread and ill try to help you as much as I can to get it sorted. It would be eaiser for me than trying to explain the entire process here and it will also be easier to explain when you have got something to relate too. oh btw are you also using a remote or a keyboard to control MP bolders [/QUOTE]
