Programming UPC DVR Remote for MCE

misterbyrne

Hello,

I have the Chorus NTL / UPC DVR, which comes with a decent programmable remote. I also have a media centre PC attached to my TV which has a MCE remote. I have looked at the UPC manual and there are no MS / MCE / XBox codes. No luck scanning through the codes using the methods in the manual either.

So, has anyone tried to control a media centre PC using the UPC remote, or should I just get a universal remote and program that to control the whole lot?

Thanks!
