Sanyo Infrared Remote control for Projector

Advantages: Control many devices using Infrared - easy to setup
Disadvantages: Can't control bluetooth or FM devices

...you to press the buttons. Thats it. We had to do that with one of ours and it works brilliantly and wasn't hard to do. The Only Flaw to this remote is it can't control FM signalled devices such as motorised projector screens or bluetooth controlled devices such as Playstations - HOWEVER these devices can come with infra-red or infra-red can be bought as an accessory...

Advantages: Completes complex source switching with a single keystroke
Disadvantages: Not much

...I have a complex AV system that has separate audio and video signal paths. This makes switching sources a nightmare that involves multiple remote controls and a lot of concentration. I have tried many programmable remotes over the years (three in the last 2 years) and this Logitech Harmony product stands head and shoulders above the rest. The set up requires a PC or MAC. I found the software excellent. Initially the software asks for the make and model numbers of the devices you want to operate. Logitech have a huge library of devices (they claim 175,000+).

Advantages: Freedom, control buttons, long battery life
Disadvantages: Way overpriced in shops

If you hold down the play/pause button on the remote it will switch your ipod off (just like on the ipod wheel itself). The remote works from a very long distance, and most directions, in fact the fact that the remote works from such a long distance away, and the most awquard angles impresses me quite a bit. I purchased my remote brand new off ebay for £8 plus £2.50 delievery which is quite a nice saving rather than buying it in the shops for £19. So i was as happy as larry as i wanted the freedom to control my ipod from across the room. Overall... Read review
