Hello, I have a flat panel tv and need to install my cable box behind it. However, if I do this the remote will not work because the cable box is hidden behind the tv. Is there anything I could do? Some kind of remote signal Amplifier? or some thing to bounce the remote signalor maybe some kind of a attachable remote signal eye that I can plug into the cable box? any idea?thanks
There are remote IR units for remote controls that can plug in usually with USB to some devices, not sure if you cable box will support them but mirrors will bounce an Infrared beam as long as you get the angle's right. The easiest solution would be to get longer component/coax or HDMI cables to go from your TV to your cable box relocate somewhere that isn't behind the tv, it will be much cheaper then the alternatives.
Infrared and blutooth my friend
