Yes it used an IR blaster to change channels on the STB and record. It was very reliable though, recording clashes were always sorted by it finding repeats. Even now the season pass I set for Top gear in 2001 still works and tries to flick the V+ STB over, which was good as I never realised the new series was starting. Hopefully the new box remembers series links between series? The only downside is the £10/month just for the EPG data!
