Will this device work in live theatre performances? If the infrared system will work for different venues, I would like to buy one to carry with me.

It theoretically does, but I am not sure. I meant to take the receiver (i.e., the part with the earphone) with me when I go to a movie, but hadn't yet. You have given me the motivation to do so, and I will try it next time I go -- and let you know, if I can, through Amazon.

No. This devise is strictly for TVs, perhaps some radios, recorders and the like. It has to be plugged in. Sorry

no, and don't buy, similar earphones are not good. I bought headphones, you can find it at Costco.com, big, but good sound.

I have not used it outside of my Home TV, but I believe you could test it out by taking it inside a museum that uses video exhibits or a concert hall. You might want to call the Theater you'd be visiting and asking them if their system accommodates yours.

No, the device does not have to be in direct line of sight. It is bluetooth (radio), not infrared. Mine is plugged into the rear of an amplifier inside a cabinet. Does need to be within 30 feet of source.

No, it does not work with an infrared remote. It has a manual knob only. I do not know of one that uses a remote.

BeckBeck,I bought the projector for outside the home use, but still indoors. I use it for video presentations in connection with my religious faith. I am a traveling minister, and I set the projector up in a different auditorium each week. I can plug into the existing sound system with an audio converter, or I can play the projector with sound from the projector only. It has wonderful sound with a long range of projection. So, it's fantastic for what I use it for. I can show video files or a DVD (wish it was a blu-ray player) in full light. But, it's a much better picture with the lights out. It's doesn't have to be pitch black. But, "lights out" helps the picture quality. - I hope these comments help. BeckBeck,I bought the projector for outside the home use, but still indoors.

It will work fine under regular circumstances, to the best of my knowledge. Unless you work with studio strobes, like me. Then there are problems. So it's just gathering dust on my shelf...

this is an IR extender device. Any IR signal that goes into it on one and will be replicated on the other. It does not know or care what manufacturer or remote the signal comes from. It is a dumb device in this instance. That is the best thing about it.there is no i_r device on the planet that it will not work with.if it doesn't work with any particular IR device, then it's either broken or the user set it up wrong.

It's IR and it should work. Just make sure the transmitter nodes are adhered directly over and facing into the sensor of the box. Even a small gap may cause problems.

I don't think so. It only responds to Insteon commands, and I believe most home theater equipment use a different protocol. I have the Lutron Maestro in my theater -- it uses an IR remote and the commands can be memorized by my Logitech Harmony.

We used our light with our cameras and video recording cameras. If your camera can detect ir light most likely it will work but we don't have that type of camera so we don't know for sure but your camera specs should tell you. Thanks.

It should work with any equipment that uses an Infrared remote. Great product and reasonably priced. The owner himself responded to my technical call.

i'm with deborah here. i need a wireless setup which will work for videography. i need it to record audio at weddings etc. i do not do plays, concerts and church ceremonies which require amps and speakers. i want freedom of movement for the subject to record his/her voice wirelessly. if this unit will not work for me, can someone suggest a good wireless lavalier system that will work for video production please. there seems to be hundreds of different devices. thanks guys.

Would work fine. I D-Jayed a wedding with 200 people with it. Put it in a suitcase with other equipment and then on a plane to Philadelphia. It worked great. Would be just fine for your venue. Compact and fairly powerful. I used a laptop for the music.

It's just a repeater, so I would expect it to work with any infrared remote/source.

I agree with Chris, I've only used the RF transmitter to broadcast the sound the radio of our vehicle. The IR should work just fine.

Of those that were able to get the infrared headphones working, did you have to do something special to get them to work? I have 2 sets of infrared headphones from a Sienna DVDS system, but not quite sure how to get them to work. TIA!

In my experience, this device emulates a keyboard. It's not a IR relay or anything like that. It simply translates a IR signal into a specific keyboard character that a PC could take action on. Not sure it would be appropriate for the applications you are referring to.

I've used it for theater with live video feed and processor. We used it in a small space and it definitely worked for our production.
