Having bought a front projector, I am in the process of redoing my home theater. I got rid of my big RPTV and moved my 2 equipment racks to the side of the room, thus freeing up the whole front wall for the screen and 3 front speakers.
BUT....now I'm having trouble getting my remote controls to work with the equipment in the far rack: the angle is so acute that the IR sensors won't pick up the signals unless I get up out of my chair. Yes, I'm lazy.
What if I placed some little mirrors on the front edge of the equipment rack? Would these reflect the IR beam onto the sensors? Or do I need one of those IR repeaters?
