[/COLOR]Hello:

I have a low-end home theater setup with the following:

Receiver - OnkyoHT-R520

AT&TUverse VIP2250

Projector - Infocus Screenplay 5000


I setup a Logitechharmony H628 remote that has worked fine for me, along with a leapfrog LF-IRXthat deflects the remotes signal backwards to the turn the projector on andoff.


I am nowplacing a cabinet in the room so the Receiver and AT&T Uverse box will bebehind a door. My question is; what is the best way to be able to operate everything ‘through’the door, with a single remote? I don't want to spend a lot of money, but would like something reliable.


I know thatthe AT&T Uverse has a point anywhere remote, but that does not address thereceiver OR the projector for that matter.


I am new tothis, and probably have not provided all the necessary information. So, if Ihave left something out, please let me know and I will post an update.

Thanks forall the support everyone has given me through the years.

You can use a IR repeater system. Keep your Logitech, and get something like this:
RadioShack Wired IR Repeater System : Accessories | RadioShack.com

I've used this exact IR repeater recently and it worked very well. It takes the IR signal into the receiver, then pushes it down a hard wire to the other components that are inside your equipment rack. It's inexpensive to purchase, and since you are buying it from a local store, if it doesn't work well, simply return it.
