I've just had a quick peek, they plug into the back of the matrix on 3,5mm jacks..you're right, geniuses!

So is there a socket on the back of the sky box that takes a jack so I can do away with the infa red things?

Ish. Sky box will take IR over the RF feed on RF2. You'll need to buy a small adapter that plugs into RF2 and has a 3.5mm socket for the IR feed. I thought you needed to enable the IR feed for RF2 in setup but I can't find it. Might be in the installer menu (Google for details on access).

That's perfect!

Thanks very much, appreciate the help.

My sky boxes havent got the rf outs, so I think I need a replicator to get an rf2 out?

Thanks again, no more Dora the explorer for me :biggrin3: !

If they have the 10 pin IO connector then there's an adapter for that too.

Well chunk, you'd have a fit if you knew what man toys I'd bought this month.. We now have a man cave! Yep, it does include a beer fridge, although it does have rose in it at the mo!

You could have said that at the beginning of the thread, he couldn't have argued.
