There is a way to do it (I have my HR20 setup this way), when you are setting up the remote in the HR20 menus, read the options very carefully, it is not worded or described well, but it is there. I just kind of played around with the different options until I figured it out. I would give you more specifics but I am at work, I am sure somebody with a photographic memory or sitting at home right now can probably give you the exact steps to take.
