    Unhappy DishTV Freeview Decoder S7070R

    Has anyone tried to set up one of the DishTV Freeview decoders to their TiVo? My DTVS decoder died and I got this to replace it but I cannot seem to get the IR to be read by the unit. I have tried many frequencies - I an using irSliceCreator.sh

    Will be the end of my Phillips TiVo if I cannot fix it.

    Have you tried Topfield codes?
    My suspicion is that Dish TV is a rebranded box and although I haven't found a Topfield equivalent there are some Topfield features on the Dish.
    Also can you glean any info from the manufacturers label on the rear that will help?

    Thanks for the tip but no go. Not much info on the box. I can capture the IR Codes ok but cannot transmit back. Used to work with the old box but not with this. Will look to get an old DTVS I guess.
