I have 1 ir repeater with 4 inputs. In the master bedroom (about 55 feet away from closet where all the components are) I have a Panasonic Viera wall mount TV, On the edge of the TV I have the repeater that
goes back to the ir hub I have one emitter plugged in, with the other end going into the Verizon cable box. But once I plug-in the receiver and Blu ray, nothing works? The system is a Channel Vision IR-5010 Plasma proof ir kit. The wire that I'm using from the TV to the hub is a cat-5, I've even doubled the wires? What I'm I doing wrong? or do I need a better ir system (Don't have a lot of money left)
Please help!!!!!!!

Clarify a little, maybe pics.
The 4 hub and repeaters should be in the closet.
Why is something plugged into the Verizon box?

Its not plugged in the Verizon cable box, the IR-3002 dual IR emitter, one end (sticky) to the Verizon cable box infrared.
The Channel Vision IR-1203 Amplified (not very amplified if it doesn't work) hub is in the closet, with the cable boxes (4)
Pioneer receivers (3) Blu ray DVD (1) and one Amp for the outside speakers.
Please help???

Try unplugging all emitters in closet and using one at a time, if one emitter is bad, it may be affecting the others.

If I have one plugged in at a time the IR works, But I need the receiver and Blu ray to work?
and the longest run is 55 feet from the closet to the master bedroom?
I called Channel Vision tech support, he said to use a different transformer 12vc 1 amp and
the hub burnt up?

If you used a transformer with higher amperage yet still putting out the same voltage, you should have been fine. Maybe the hub was bad to begin with?
