105? Don't they mean 305? Also I assume you need MHEG enabled?

They mean BBCi on 105

Yes, you need interactive services enabled.

Works on the Humax PVR-9200T with firmware 1.00.10.

It even works on my 2003 vintage Sony KD-32DX150 iDTV, test card and all,
even though I had to manually tune BBCi into a channel within its 2-digit
change range and I had to carefully space out the key presses so that I
didn't run ahead of its snailpaced processor.

Interesting. Couldn't make it work on my 2 year old Sony DVD/HDD DVR, but just
tried now on my Oct 2007 Bravia LCD and success. Not tried it on my Toppy just
yet, I've got MHEG switched off on that, and it's recording currently, so
let's let sleeping dogs lie :-)

Fascinating. Works on a Humax 8000T and a Panasonic DTTV HDD/DVD
recorder. You do have to wait a little while for the test card to
appear after the last keypress. Must record a bit and burn a DVD. It'll
be very handy.
