You could also check the STB list on your BV6

If you look in your PUC list/STB controller list you will see the various models of STB it can control. Whatever is in the PUC/STB list can be controlled by the Beo4 with a cheap IR cable from the TV to the STB.Does it list any Humax Boxes at all? You might not have to go to the expense of the oneremote solutions

I use a Humax PVR-9300T, with my old BeoVision 5. the Remote seems the same as the one for the PVR-9200T I had before!

PS if it will control HUMAX boxes

Cheers for that the humax box I am getting is the pvr 9150T This model isnt listed on the stb list guide on  the tv list it is a stb list

I was thinking there are a few Humax listed on the Tv list do you think any one would work with the pvr9150t ? also will I also need a ir blaster to control via beo 4 ?

There are often the same ir commands in Humax products, especially stb boxes.

You can check ir codes on the Lintronic site.

If you have already ordered a box, just test it, when it`s delivered. If there is a Humax box in the stb list starting with PVR 9...you have a good chance, that your box will also work. And yes you will need an ir cable.

Great fantastic - you have answered my queries! but please can you explain how does the stb ir controller lead  work as I wouldve thought if the humax works off one in the list, would this bypass the need for the ir lead please excuse my ignorance I am not a expert on this ....

Hi Jonnie,

Not sure but I think you misunderstand the way the control works. The Beo4 will not control the box - it controls the TV which sends the command using the IR lead to the IR sensor on the box. You tell the TV which command set to send down that IR lead in the STB/PUC menu. 

For what it's worth, I have a BC 26 and I use the PUC to control a Humax Foxsat box via an IR blaster lead. I found two of the four Humax boxes in the TV menu worked most of the functions but I did eventually have the PUC list updated to get all of the controls. Oddly, I previously had a Sony Freeview hard disk recorder and none of the Sony command sets worked with that!

I'm sure you can get the PUC updated on a BV 22, if you need to - AVA services at Crawley did it for me for around £50. They also put in the latest command sets for Sky and Apple boxes at the same time. Took around half an hour.

Brilliant yes you are right I did not understand I thought control was controlling the box ! you have made it clear now many thanks and yes after I have tried if doesnt work will contact Crawley branch
