| Hi,
| 
| I have built an MCE 2005 system myself using a PVR150MCE and MCE OEM 
| Hardware kit - connected to a Telewest new digibox.
| 
| Everything works brilliant (the recordings, guide, quality etc) except that 
| I cannot get the MCE remote to function as my telewest one!
| 
| When I am going through the configuration it says to press 0, hold release 
| and nothing when it does register it then says channel up, channel down and 
| then comes up says you have pressed [0] release and press channel down.
| 
| After a while it says manually configure and I select from a list which 
| cable box i have (I have selected both PACE and Telewest) the same thing.
| 
| This even happens when I move the IR sensor and have the telewest remote up 
| against the sensor it self.
| 
| Please help.
