Welcome to the forum pecker115 I do not think there is any way around this, as I understand it, the card has to be paired to the box to record from planner | ||

No I believe the pairing takes place between the Sky auth server and the stb via the card so I do not think it would help unless there is some way of altering an identical box to the same ID (box) number as the original. This may be possible in some way but I have no knowledge of it | ||
