It's a JP1 remote programmer that I built connected to a universal remote and a USB-to-serial adapter, just a few resistors, transistors and diodes. It's a One-For-All Sky+ remote clone that you can program to control the TV as well as the Sky box. The remote didn't have any codes for my TV in it because it was too new. Managed to figure out the missing codes and upload them to the remote.

wow thats cool, so it had a port but no offically available cable.
I would have slid off the setee and used my toes to change channel manually, after about a year I might have got another remote
Robh needs to build something bigger like robocop

I have the original TV remote but I only wanted to use one remote to control both the TV and Sky. In this case the TV was so new that no remote had the codes for it, even that latest Sky remote lacks the codes.
Well it has the port (JP1) but it it only intended for the manufacturer to use. Some clever people on the Internet figured out how to talk to it through the port and apply upgrades.
I'm a maker so buying a new remote it just not my style, I knew I could get it to work, it was just of matter of how. My girlfriend wanted an AUX input in her car recently so rather than going and replacing the stereo I hacked one into the existing stereo. I just wired a stereo jack into the CD players stereo output circuit and burnt an audio CD of silence to trick the player into thinking a CD was playing.

In my opinion user licenses like that should be ruled void in a court of law. I'm sure if a statistical survey were taken, 99.5% of people scroll through them instantly.
It's like putting a vital clause in ultra-small print when you know perfectly well no one will ever read it.

Just saw this pic and nearly cacked myself - to this day, the only film in my entire life that's made me cry with fear. I watched it all through again about 2 years ago, for the first time since I was 5 - today's edited version is a lot less scary.
