Using Dish remote to control Philips DVDR

[dmmedina]

Hi all,

I have just purchased a Philips DVDR and I wonder if I can use the Dish remote to control this Unit. I would love to be able to change channels, start recording and so on using the Dish remote, basically the same functions you get when you use a VCR. Does anybody know if this is posible and if so how to do so and what codes to use.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I want to record to disc from dish network. What equipment do I need for recording to disc?
