Any comments, I emailed Harmony Remotes and got this back.
I am suspicious that there are really 11 users out there. Anyone using the Harmony remote with the 921 or even 721?
Dear Sir,
Plan on buying a harmony, I have one important question.
I will be controlling a Dish DVR (PVR) 921 with the remote, this is a UHF remote, the unit itself accepts IR , but the problem is the remote is only UHF so no "learning"
There is available on the internet Phillips "Pronto" Codes that will control this unit via IR. If I have these codes is there any way to convert or do you know of another way?
I really want to go with the Harmony, instead of the Pronto. Help

"Thanks for your email and your interest in the Harmony Remote. I checked our database, and it seems that we already have that particular model, with 11 Harmony users controlling it with one of our remotes. We can convert Pronto Hex codes to our format, but it looks like this will be unnecessary. Your PVR should work just by typing in the model number. If you have any other questions just let me know."
