[mythtv-users] Multiple Systems - Multiple Remotes

[cossaboon.mythtv at mac.com]

I use the Adesso Wireless IR as well

EdpNo=1388866&CatId=537

Works great has hand grips on the bottom and a built in track ball. I  
do not know the range, I use it about 9' from the TV, and use a cable  
distribution to send the IR to the Server in the basement. Works GREAT!

I programed learning remotes to emulate the keys I needed for MythTV,  
and have them at the other TV around the house.

The cable distribution is "A Two-Channel Modulator That Distributes A/ 
V Sources to Local and Distant TVs";

The Remote IR Targets to send the IR back to the Server are part of  
the Cable Distribution. These are "IR Target for Multi-Room Video  
Distribution System"

I use the keyboard when I need system issues, but all other times the  
Sony and Logitech learning remotes and the above system work great.
