IR codes for Amstrad DRX890-C to work with SlingboxClassic

Post by antalbino »

Hi

I am a newbie to this forum and looking for help!! I have a Sky HD Amstrad DRX890-C box which I am trying to work with my Slingbox Classic. However, the slingbox doesn't have any of the codes for this newer Sky HD box.

I phoned the Slingbox support number and they told me that they can get it to work if I can give them the IR codes in the form of a .bin file.

I'm afraid I am not very technical and this doesn't mean alot to me however a friend recommended this forum to me and said that there are members here could possibly help.

Any (not too technical) advice appreciated!!

Many thanks

I found a set of learned signals for the SkyHD Amstrad drx890

They appear to be more or less the same codes as the drx780. Try these bin files.
