RE: X10 new 5-in-1 remote with Sky Digibox?

["Phillip Harris" <phil@xxxxxxx>]

The Xantech IR kit seems to be fine with $ky Digital receivers, as does
the Buffalo kit, PowerMid and One-For-All RF IR extenders. Pronto's are
fine with $ky digital receivers and AFAIK there are no problems
learning
the $ky codes with the current batch of learning capable remotes...

It has most IR codes built-in except for the Sky Digibox (Pace). Is
Pace
is sold under a different brand name in the USA? It won't learn the
codes from an original Sky remote. I realise the Sky remote works at a
higher frequency than normal remotes, but it managed to learn the
"2"
button! Shame there's no channel 222! ;-)

Any ideas how I can force it to learn the Sky codes?

Thanks,
Gary.
