STB Set Top Box

In my case its an NTL digital cable box made by Pace, and a lot  of people 
have had problems with NTL and TELEWEST STBs as they use a modified irda 
protocol. After asking around it is possible that my box, a Di4000 may also 
support standard remote codes inaddition to the irda ones but I have yet to 
get it to work. The model I have has no serial port so I cant control it via 
that, has to be via an IR blaster type device.

Thanks
