Hi folks,

You must have come across manysites wherein you need to control IR based equipments either hidden behind the wooden cabinet or placed far away from the room. Now we got solution through which we can control any IR based equipment placed anywhere behind or far away.

In case, any one needs info on this.. do let me know.

AFAIK putting a small mirror angled correctly on the wall does wonders.
Why do we need another solution?

Cheers

Re: Infrared control Kits

Unless the solution you are offering is top secret or 'Patent pending', why don't you just publish the information for all to see? This is after all a public forum.

Is there any easy solution? Hey, then you should have posted it three days back. I have ordered an IR to RF converter transmitter and receiver from Trek through amazon. It costs only 31.5USD (US Shipping). This is the only cheapest solution I could find. I hope I can control the WDLive mediaplayer and BigTV stb from my bedroom (a small lcd screen or a TV is enough), no need of any WiFi remotes.
