For a moment I thought my overseas client could make use of the Metra system. He built a HUGE place, with 17 racks of video equipment in the penthouse. These are filled with satellite receivers, each set to a channel. Their outputs are modulated to VHF and UHF frequencies and distributed throughout the house via fiber and cable. Each TV has a choice of satellite channels... in standard definition.

There had been a two-year hiatus in construction of the villa and the in-house satellite distribution was already hopelessly old when first fired up.

Today, the Metra system could use that distribution system to get 1080P out to all locations, but here's the hangup: whereas today there's just a TV at each location, implementing the Metra system means putting an M3B-RX at each location and somehow choosing channels in a system as simply as it would be to use a TV remote.

Hey, Brent, do you have any remotes that include M3B codes at TV codes? Are the M3B codes available to put into a one-for-all remote?
A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.
