Have you tried all the other Sky Remotes ? Most Sky boxes use the same codes.

hallo,
I found a pattern that I recognize some of the commands you type, for example, 205 but sometimes I only read 2 or 5 then I have to change channels one at a time to understand that for me to get to 300 I'll put a little (sky italia drx7001 sky model used is the only one who does something at least)

Your translator makes this difficult to understand but if ANY of the buttons is working then your problem is with the IR signal strength not the codes. Try moving the IR Blaster around ? Is the sun shining on your Sky box ? Do you have a lamp close by ?................

Alan,
I'm having a little trouble with the syntax here to.
It looks like CH+ and CH- work, but the timing for direct channel entry isn't right. Entering 205, he's getting 25. So the timing is too quick for the box to respond.

Could this be addressed by the slingbox software? It seems to me you have fixed problems like this by having people jump into a screen where they can fix the way that channel numbers are entered.
Remember to provide feedback to let us know how the problem was solved and share your upgrades.

Tip: When creating an upgrade, always include ALL functions from the oem remote, even if you never plan on assigning them to a button. Complete function lists makes an upgrade more helpful to others.

There is a page, but I have never figured out how to find it. there seems to be a random number generator that means it shows sometimes and not other times.

I thought it showed up after a reset of the box, but I'm still reallys foggy on this subject and I think I heard that from you. Apparently even that is random.

Vincenzo: I suggest you post the specific question "How do I change the Channel entry method" onto the official Slingbox forum. You are more likely to get an answer that way.

I wish you would not try and give such short answers. We NEED LOTS of information if if we are to help.

Are the buttons actually missing on the Remote Control or are they disabled ?

What does the remote look like ? Is it a Sky Remote or a square black one ?

Which remote did you select ?

OK, I see what you mean now, I have never seen that second image.

But I STILL need to know what device you have selected, so that I can analyse the codes and build you a remote.
