    Friend of mine wants to have his sky box in a cabinet under the TV with the doors closed so he will need an IR repeater of some sort to pass the remote signals through. Any recommendations? It is the latest Sky HD box so does not have RF out. Otherwise he would just use the IR bit of a magic eye.

    Seems to be a bit of a mine field as to which ones will work with Sky boxes and I don't want to have to buy a few before finding one that works.

    Decided after a bit of research to get the Sky IO link and us it with a magic eye.

    That is the most sensible and most reliable solution. Make sure there is some form of ventilation as well in the cabinet as sky boxes run rather hot.
