There is always the possibility that these jacks, even though they are there, don't work. Our SA cable boxes have an IR in jack, but they don't work (or at least SA doesn't tell us if we have to do something special to make them work). The LG TVs we use have an IR in jack, but I recently found out in order to use them, there is a small circuit you need to build to interface standard IR to this jack (another project I will have to work on when things slow down).

Don't rule out the fact that these may not be standard IR jacks, they may use some sort of de-modulated IR (like Sony S-Link) or instead of resting low and pulling up for signal, maybe they rest high and need to be pulled low. Most of the things we use Integra, B&K, Sony can all be hardwired but there are a few non-standard things out there.
There are 10 types of people in this world,
There are those who understand binary,
and those who don't!
