I am getting Sky+ next week (lucky me!) . I currently use a Digisendeer
device which allows me to watch Sky anywhere in the house from the Sky
Digibox in the living room.

I just want to know does the ordinary Sky remote control also work with the
Sky+ Digibox for changing channels etc? I intend using an existing remote
control for use the Digisender device for changing channels when I am
viewing Sky from upstairs.

That's interesting. Obviously I'm not understanding something here
because the Sky+ faq says...


Can I use my old remote/keyboard?

Yes. Press the TV button on the old remote or keyboard, hold down the
blue key and select down until the red light flashes twice. Then
press 2 followed by select.

Cheers,

Bob.

I belive that is if you wish to use a Sky+ remote with a standard digibox.

AFAIK that only works the other way around (Sky+ remote sending
regular Sky remote signals). I may be wrong.
