AFAIK
,no converter now on the market can be programmed to turn on
and tune to a programmed channel;they have to be set up and left ON
until the program is over.
A lot of VCR/DVD recorders have a "blaster" that will send IR codes to
a set top box or converter.
but will the DTV converter respond to those codes?
I have a fairly recent universal remote that won't talk to my Magnavox DTV
box.(TB100MW9)
also a Hitachi VCR with the "blaster",but I haven't tried that with the DTV
box yet.
