Logitech Harmony remote w/ Home Theater Question?
Hey,
I set up a Home Theater, and I am looking to buy a universal remote.
I have had a Logitech Harmony in the past, and thought I would get one again.
The components of the HT are:
Projector (IR)
Screen (IR/RF)
Blu-Ray Player (IR)
TiVo (IR)
HT Receiver (IR)
XBOX 360 (RF)
Now all of these are behind a cabinet door (except for the projector and screen of course)…
How would I be able to set this up so that I can power the IR receivers w/ an RF remote?
Someone once told me RF can power IR… idk how true that is though..?
Are there any kind of converters? Or maybe a transmitter and I would be able to put in the cabinet that is strong enough to send the signal to all the components inside?
I am just looking for possible solutions to this problem.
Thanks!

I would personally look into Universal Remotes. They are better than Harmony remotes, in my opinion, and will be able to do exactly what you need. I work for an audio/video store and before we used to carry Harmony remotes and we used to get them returned quite often. We started carrying Universal remotes several years ago and now our customers are much more satisfied with them and we rarely see them returned. I’m providing a link to their website. Look into their professional line and you won’t be disappointed.
