Re: I got a TIVO over the weekend

[Doogie Brodie <ukhad@xxxxxxx>]

If you use the Grundig 20016 codes, it will send the Sky before every 
channel change. The Grundig 20016 are recommended on the AVS Forums 
(www.tivocommunity.com) as the most reliable ones for *ALL* Sky Digital
boxes.

Saves running out your Pronto batteries (!) Plus if you do a channel 
change, then it crashes, sending Sky to wake it up is going to get you 
back on the Sky Guide or whatever it is channel anyway, so that one 
recording would still be lost :(
