I have a question with regards to a specific component I'm not terribly familiar with - and I'm hoping someone here can share the answer. Yamaha components offer a "remote in/out" feature (via mini-plug on the back panel), allowing them to receive IR remote signals via hardwire. I am installing an RX-V1 receiver into a cabinet with a solid front door (don't worry, the back is open... plenty of ventilation) and am going to be adding an IR sensor outside the cabinet. Now - my question... can I run the output of that sensor directly into the "remote in" jack of the Yamaha? Should/could I run the sensor first into a powered distribution block and then into the "remote in"? Or will this not work - and I should just tack an emitter over the existing IR eye on the front of the RX-V1? Thanks!
