I bought a Flirc and programmed the DVD option on my TV remote. Easy set up and works very well.

The simple i have found so far is a DVD remote for PS3, you press 2 buttons and it paired instantly !

Thanks for the information, I went ahead and ordered a Flirc dongle. I'll try to set it up with my existing remotes before purchasing anything additional. Might even try using the DirecTV remote with it.

I use the new Xbox one media remote. Very very nice, limited buttons but lights up when picked up so works great during movies in the dark.

ios android remote? handy sometimes. But I don't want to
1. make sure the battery is charged (my phone goes flat once every day or two, my IR remotes seem to work for a year or more)
2. click the 'on' button on the phone.
3. swipe it to bring it out of locked state
4. Perhaps switch to the remote software if it wasn't the last thing running.
5. perform actions.
IR remote - pick it up, press a button. Also the whole family can use it, whereas if those little f***ers touch my phone * whoosh *.
If I have helped you or increased your knowledge, click the 'thumbs up' button to give thanks :) (People with less than 20 posts won't see the "thumbs up" button.)
