IR distribution control when recording ?

["noughtomate" <balraj_jassal@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm aware many of you are Sky+ owners, so this may not pose a
problem.

But the rest of you may use Tivo, HD recording or a Media Center PC
to do your recording. This would use your Sky / other digibox as a
pass-thru', allowing two points of control - either the Media box or
Sky directly. By viewing from the Sky box in this case can be risk,
because the viewer can accidently change channels without knowing a
recording is in progress.

If it's this risky in one room, how do you guys cope with multiroom ?

I'm planning ahead for AV and IR distrbution and wanted you find out
how you managed to limit IR control to a Digibox which is recording
at that time.

Are there any special tricks you guys have implemented ?

In summary I want to stop channel change on my digibox (irrespective
of the IR source) when a recording is in progress.

Any advive would be much appreciated.
