One4All with Sky Plus

I got the key magic codes to program up the play, pause, fast forward, rewind and record buttons of my One4All four (URC 7740). By default these buttons are programmed up for things like 'Box Office', 'Services' etc. Any Sky Plus user will tell you that Play, Pause and Fast Forward are far more useful. There aren't enough buttons on the remote for it to do everything. I might be able to program up a different device code (e.g. use DVD for sky plus and program the buttons differently) but I can't be bothered. Now I won't have to keep the real Sky Plus remote with me just to record programs.

The instructions to reprogram the buttons are:

  1. Press the relevant device key

  2. Press and hold the MAGIC key until the red light flashes twice.

  3. Press 9 9 4. The red-light flashes twice

  4. Press the MAGIC key once.

  5. Enter the 5-digit function code (provided by customer service, where applicable).

  6. Press the key, to which the function will be e.g. A.V. key, the red-light flashes twice.

The useful extra codes for device 1170 (Sky Plus) are:

00243 Pause
00707 Play
00528 Record
00339 Search Forward
00683 Search Reverse
00526 Sky
