Controlling DSTV set top box

Note: All options will require an IR-Blaster like the ones you get when buying a MS MCE Remote.

Option 1

  • Download IR Server Suite

  • Install. Make sure you select the appropriate tv plugin (tv2 or tv3).
  • Select the included Panasat IRD624 (DSTV) configuration file in the plugin configuration under STB. Thanks to Lappies for this config file.

Option 2 (TV2 Only)

Quote by Geov (post number 8):

First buy a "Microsoft MCE Remote" with two IR-Blasters and install.
Then download and install the MCE Replacement Plugin

todo - needs more explanation...


Option 3

Use WinLIRC
