Well i love the things this remote can do! However, i am finding the IR a bit of a pain in the ass so far. Im gonna check the angles of different equipment in a few. I am at this point finding that it really needs to be perfect line of sight. I am definately keeping this toy. In the event that the IR drives me nuts, then i will surely fight with HK to handle the problem however they need to. Ill get back to yas
