Some devices have an ability to use a remote control type signal, but that's a problem too with many of the PACE STBs as they use IrDA signalling rather than the more standard RC5.

Simply put I doubt you are going to be able to control the STB from any DVD/HDD type recorder. That's why many of us are desparate for ntl to come up with a proper PVR equivalent of Sky +
Many DVD/HD recorders, including GuidePlus+ models, the Toshiba RD-XS32/34 and Windoze Media Center can control The Pace IRDA boxes with the aid of a Red-Eye Translator.
See This page for specific info on setting up GuidePlus+ models.
