wont hip work with that sky remote
you could just use a mce receiver then get Hip to learn the codes

For the Sky Remote, is there a maker/part number/model number on the back or in the battery housing that would tell us who makes that? I'm sure Sky hired out to have it made, and somebody else will have one similar.

Sorry bdgbill, your's is cool, but the sky is simpler. (They both rock!)

Lol - I agree. This is what the MCE remote should be.

There isn't a visible makers name on the back. The chip in a standard Sky remote is a UEI SC501018P PCB maker looks like PNE (I just happen to have a naked one here).

Is HIP a freebie? I'm hoping to use the remote with a tablet PC I got off ebay some time ago with it's own irda or ir interface.
