I have a cable box behind the tv and I wanted to know If the device would solve the problem

Yes. I have all my equipment in a cabinet. The Hot Link Pro takes the signal from the remote and routes it directly to each device. It works very well.
195496
It most certainly will. There is no need to have the receiver in "line of sight." I own two of these and have both receivers mounted behind the TVs.
195497
Absolutely. My cable box is in the wall behind my TV and this thing works fantastically for repeating the signal. That is of course if you cable box remote is sending it's signal over IR and not RF.
195498
Yes but the IR transmitters cannot be individually removed so you will have a bunch of extra cables hanging around. Depending on how close to the wall your TV is, it should work fine. Also some people have had problems with Plasma TV interference. I have an LED.

This product will do what you want. You will attach one of the transmitters (the red-tipped things) to the cable box in front of the infrared receiver in the box. You will place the receiver anywhere that you have line of sight to the receiver, possible at the bottom of your TV.

The problem is probably signal detection by either your tv or cable box. In newer electronics they use DLNA which means that all your electronics recognize each other's circuitry. Since this device is intended to merely be an analog re-route, chances are that this feature is more than this device is actually able to do. I was hoping that it would be have been able to recognize my DVR also, but depending on the models that you're using some cable or satellite providers may be able to furnish you the component that it is compatible with your set up. But as anything it may cost you. I went to my local electronics store and that was the answer I received from the technician. If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask. Thanks.

If you use Cable as Part of Internet service then they provide Device which has HDMI Output. IMO, Local Cable TV Operators provide Coax cable(old round tv cables) only. In that case, this device won't help. Better check with Friends, Colleagues who live there.

I think this device will not help you like cable boxes or smart media/dvd player boxes. Unless you find an apps that will connect you to local programs. This device is very similar to a tablet that's missing a screen so you have to connect to a tv. Try looking for an app in google play for tv program player may help. You can subscribe to Hulu Plus, Netflix and such through device and never had any problem with streaming video.

I also bought an IR extender so that I could put the Cable box behind the wall.I used a Simplicity wall mount

the sensor might not be exactly situation on your cable box sensor. It happens all the time.

It sounds more like the signal source is the problem. If it was within the TV circuitry, all channels would be affected. ihave had no trouble with my TV and it stays at the top of the technical world.

Actually the TV works well. I thought I was having audio problems with the TV but it was with cable box that had audio problems.

The only thing mine is connected to is the cable box...sorry, I don't have a clue.

Also, in addition to my other answer, if you do have problems, just attach another regular (but shorter) power extension cord between your tv's angled power cord and the powerbridge outlet.

I had the same problem on a Visio 39",Tv audio output is the problem. connected to the cable box and it worked fine.

My experience is that the sensor must be very close to the transmitted signal. My opinion is it would not work for cable behind wallboard, etc. Could be a help in sorting out cables you can touch.

I know my cable box sometimes takes a long time to boot and get the channel guide if I leave it off for an extended period of time. Perhaps the satellite box could be the same.I've never put a meter on mine to see how much it draws constantly though to know if shutting it off every time versus leaving it on constantly is beneficial.

If your cable box has RCA plugs out available and your tv on the wall has RCA plugs in it will work. You still have to have wires running to the TV from the Receiver of the Nyrius but it is a good solution if your wiring for the cable is not near where your TV is mounted. Signal will not be HD.

If you're referring to a coaxial connection, there is a coaxial input on the bar. I haven't tried to connect directly to a cable box, it would make more sense if you were to connect it to your TV but I probably don't fully understand what you're trying to accomplish.

I only have my TV, VCR and Comcast box attached to mine. (The wi-fi and cable router are plugged into the strip on the "always on" side.) [ Not sure this is enough help for you. ]

I'm an Old School holdout. Never had cable, never will. There's enough on broadcast TV to distract me from real life. Odd you should ask this question. To answer, YES. I had an old giant CRT running off an Insignia DTV box without any problems right up to the day the tuner in the TV went belly up. I retained the DTV box to feed my VCR (Yes, I still have several of those) and added the Vizio with a splitter. The Vizio did not like this arrangement and refused to accept some channels. I finally had to feed the Vizio from another antenna outlet across the room. This solved the problem (mostly) but I have an annoying coax cable running through the bedroom. Depending on the weather the picture and sound will break up at times. If it really gets unbearable I watch the programming through the DTV box that far outperforms the Vizio direct tuner. Unfortunately this arrangement only allows a reduced screen and fuzzy captions. In my opinion the tuner capture capability of the Vizio is borderline and a real disappointment. I'm running a roof mount antenna in a suburban area.
