Problems with Plasma and IR Remotes!! (1 Viewer)

[Perry Jonkheer]

Ok,

My dad has a 50" Fujitsu plasma with all of his components plugged into a so-called plasma proof IR eye/receiver. His remotes will work MAYBE 10 to 15% of the time and it's has become unbearable. Money is not a huge concern here, we just want to get everything working the way it should.

Would this: http://www.abtelectronics.com/product/16512.html

along with an RF capable remote solve all my problems?

Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Thank You,

PJ

The CSL-friendly IR recvrs are not all that wonderful since they block out many of the common IR frequencies (sounds like your problem). I talked to a Xantech rep at CES about this and he recommended that I try the regular IR recvr instead...I did just that when I got back in town and now the light on the IR recvr block glows slightly when the TV is on but all remotes now work perfectly.

Dean,

Thanks for the reply, but I already used the regular IR recvr to no avail as my first try...
