Thanks, Buzz, will give that a go and see if it works. The rest of the 9600 works just fine...only the learning piece it a bit problematic.

I will also look at IrMaster. Swisscom actually offers an IR dongle to hook up to their set-top box. Perhaps I can use that as a receiver and IrMaster SW to receive the codes. I have had problems finding any HW for this in CH... although it could well be that I just don't know where to look.

In term of the Swisscom TV codes, I was able to track down some that work...not I just need a few of the ones missing plus the discrete codes for a couple of functions.
