Hello,

I have a rather unique issue, where I have two Sky boxes; a Sky+ box and a Sky+HD box, sitting next to each other in a rack, but feeding different rooms.
There is a IR extender in each room going back to the Sky boxes.
However, when I'm changing channels in one room it sends rogue commands to the other box. Is there a way to stop the Sky+HD remote controlling the Sky+ box and vice versa?

Thanks in advance.

How are you doing the IR down a Sky Eye ? or are you just splitting out of a IR block to the two sky boxes?

The box for the main room has an IR emitter from a Nevo Link via a Nevo SL, and in the other room we're using the original Sky+ remote and a MagicEye.
So the Nevo emitter was sending commands to both boxes (not just the HD box), I didn't really want to cover up the sensor on the Sky HD box in case I ever wanted to use the original remote.
I found a site which has sorted me out - the bit that helped me was answered in Q3.
I just had to learn all the commands from the Sky remote again after I changed its settings.
