Actually there are only two Pace STBs (the 1000 and 2000) that use the IrDA-like TWTV remote protocol exclusively. The other Bromley Pace box (the 4000) can use either TWTV or regular RC5 remote commands, and all remaining boxes (4001 and 4010s used in Langley areas, and the Samsungs) use RC5 only.

hurstnicholas: can you tell us which STB model you have? To find out, either look on the bottom of the box, or press page up, page down, blue on the remote, and look for "hardware type" in the info that appears.
