Got myself a slingbox A/V. Installed in Belgium. Remote viewing out of Austin TX

Everything works flawlessly. Only....I am unable to 'remote control' my settop box? Granted Belgium is a non supported country I do know it is possible since I found an editorial from a belgian journalist who managed to control the telenet digibox.

My question: since telenet (our dig cable provider) probably gets the digibox from an OEM provider, I suspect the settop box is somehow part of the list. Only problem is, I don't know the OEM brand name

Second question: isn't there a way to create a custom remore control base don trial and error?

I am having the same problem. Did you get anywhere?

found out that the remote (the little black cables) were not working. I got new ones but haven't gotten  the time to test it yet. Will do soon

 did you test your remote? You can do it by pushing neither button on the softremote and looking through a digital camera to see whether the IR LED lights up

Did anyone make headway with getting the telenet box and slingbox IR to interact?

I did not...
But still interested in a solution
