[mythtv-users] PVR-250 and NTL Cable in the UK

If it's a pace NTL box - it depends on the version. 1000T/N or anything
apart from 4000 onwards will require an IRDA to RC5/6 converter...
Www.redremote.co.uk  - I use one of these and a Telewest Pace 1000T box and
use LIRC with the 'improved' serial transmitter to change channels. Works a
treat!
