Re: Autoview switching on PVR
If this is how its supposed to work then why has it only just started doing
it even though I have had the same setup for over a year and also my PVR
dosent use this to start a recording, so why would it switch on when it
gets this signal, seem pointless, all it does is sit at the menu and take
control of the TV stopping me watch the program I wanted to watch.
I do have a setting on the PVR called AV link which if i remember setting
this to either on or off causes this to happen before, but whatever setting
I use makes no differnce to the sky box controling the PVR. I'm wondering
if the pin being used by the sky box as changed, I remember someone saying
that two pins can be used to control external equipment.
