Can anyone post their success (or otherwise) with using Sage to control and record from a Sky digibox?

Cheers,

It is a breeze.

I use an RGB to SVideo converter to feed the Digibox signal into a PVR250 Svideo port.
Also alan Birtle's Radio Times grabber to grab xmltv data and an xmltv plugin.
A USB-UIRT is in charge for sending the channel change IR codes to the digibox.

Sage is a MUCH better Sky+ box.... at a price.

Thanks Lucas - I'd hoped it was that easy, but with all the problems I'm having with my Hauppauge PVR350 & 150 cards I suspected there was worse to come. :rolleyes2
