Can someone give a one word answer to the following question please.

If I get digital cable via NTL will my pronto learn the remote codes ?

I only ask I spent 45minutes going through the thread on it earlier and still didn't get it

Ta!

Yes. I have digital cable also. The remote uses IR so your OK.

Are you sure, only so I don't get NTL digital cable and then have to use 2 remotes again.

I'm only checking after all the talk about Pace set top boxes

I don't have any problem with COX digital which uses General Inst. cable boxes.
What brand and model of box will you be controlling?

Mark,

If NTL provides you a Pace DiTV1000 digibox the Pronto will not be able to learn the remote codes.

Well, I phoned NTL and spoke to a very helpful chap who brought up all the specs, but couldn't tell me the make and model number of the box.
I live in the South East in an Ex C&W area.
Any more thoughts?

Ex C&W customers are the ones with the problem. I live in the NW, ex C&W and I'm not getting digital until this has been resolved.

It does not work with the Pace DiTV100 which is currently being deployed in Telewest and all Ex C&W NTL areas.

It works with eveything else, including the Pace Di4001 which is currently being deployed in original NTL areas.
