Title: IR doesn't work
Product review: There was no code for Motorola cable boxes, so my IR controller never worked. When we switched to satellite, I tried again and it still didn't work, but it seemed like by then whatever powers it probably ran out of juice and there is no replaceable battery or anything like that. I want to let people know who are searching for solutions to problems with this unit about an error I encountered. When either the set top box for cable or satellite was enabled in the setup options, the unit would not timer record. It could record manually, but if the timer was set, it would lock up when the recording started. I would have to either unplug or press and hold power and stop to reset it. It took me a while to figure out that the set top box settings were to blame. Hopefully this will help anyone with the same problem (although most people have already given up on trying to get these machines to work properly.)
