Hi everyone.
Request: Suggest options so I can operate one component remotely (wired). The component is my receiver, and all I want to do is volume control from the poker room (maybe change inputs).
Research: I did HTF search, been to Xantech, smarthome, crutchfield, hotlink (mmmm....hotlinks....) and I am overwhelmed by the complex solutions.
So does a simple solution exist where you can avoid these expensive systems for operating multiple devices etc. ?
If not...that's cool. I thought something would exist where you could mount it in the wall/ceiling/whatever and it ran all the way to the receiver's infrared receiver and just transmitted the signal.
Maybe I am way off and you have to go with a hub and all that ...
I was trying to get this done for the least amount of $$$ possible.
