Does this product work through entertainment centers when the wood cabinets are closed?

Unfortunately, I could not get it to work at all. It programmed ok, but was like it kept losing the connection. Sent it back, good luck.

Don't know - never tried it, but I doubt it. It's infrared which requires line of sight. It's a straight replacement for original DirecTV equipment, not any kind of an upgrade.

Yes. With all recievers they get warm. I found this out wiyh my last Sony. I had it in an enclosed entertainment center with glass doors. It did not have enough ventilation and eventually stopped working. To combat the heat I added a small low speed cooling fan to the cabinet. Similar to what you would see on a desktop computer. I simply cut a hole in the back of the cabinet and screwed into wood. Very low noise does a great job keeping cool. Found fan on Amazon.Hope this helps!

Yes it does all the drawers and doors on furniture open and close too. This set is very nice it sits on a table in my play center has been knocked off so many times and holds up so well!!

As Ted replied, yes.My "saucer" is hidden behind a cabinet as is all of my equipment except for my HDTV. I added the Triple IR Mouse Extender to control the boxes behind the cabinet. The IR still controls the TV volume because I have it set to "punch through."

Don't know for sure, but I believe the trigger is magnetic, so the pieces being close enough (with no interference) in the "closed door" state is what makes this work.

Yes! I actually have my cable box in the cabinet and the remote works fine for that through the glass. Hope that helps.

Attachment is on outside so that is not an issue. Never tried myself, but I would think you would have to adjust your settings (if possible) to allow unit to function even while closed.

Yes...it will not work through walls. Anything will impede that range such as being in a pocketbook, in a drawer, etc.

No, it just restricts the door from opening all the way. Good to stop it from hitting a wall or other cabinet doors.

Hi Christine, I used this product inside the metal ducts in my ventilation system, so not sure if it works on wood. My best guess is since wood is more porous than metal, it should do the job just fine. Hope this helps.

I used it to keep the cable box and the Blu-ray player both connected to the TV. But it is an inferior product. It would not keep the TV signal, kept switching around to the Blu-ray. I don't use it anymore.

Yes, the remote definitely works with the doors closed. From time to time you may have to adjust your angle slightly if the signal is blocked by the wood panels, but its a really minor issue. We love this TV stand - its beautiful and the edges aren't so sharp that we have to worry about it hurting our 1-year old!

yes. I put my directv dvr and my sylvania dvd player down below and keep the doors closed, and have no problem using the remote.

Yes but an easier way to deal with the green lights is to place the product behind or under furniture. I have 2 in my bedroom and I use the above suggestion so the lights do not present an issue for me

The doors work very well. I keep DVD's and VHS tapes in the cabinet and the doors and cabinets work well. I have the cabinet behind a couch- it looks good.

This remote operates through furniture. I have one behind the bed , another behind a dresser and another behind a couch. Remote works without any problems through walls as well.
