I can take my Sony receiver's remote, teach Flirc its signals, plug Flirc into my PC, and the remote will work both the receiver &amp; Win Media Center?

Technically you could, but the remote would be sending signals to both your media center PC and the receiver at the same time, so basically both devices would be responding to every key press, which would lead to some wonky results sometimes

Yes it will work on as many as you need. It learns whatever signal you point at it so theoretically you could have a different remote for each IR button. The D-pad on this is IR only which was a deal breaker for me since I didn't have a flirc so I returned it and got the aerb.

This has to be used with this product in order to work, http://www.amazon.com/IR-Repeater-System-Control-Theater/dp/B0016PM63W/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1405953543&sr=8-7&keywords=ir+repeater

It works great with any remote and reciever that uses infra red. will only work as far as the wire will extend, all my gear (xbox360, Cisco HD box, Yamaha reciever) are in an enclosed cabinet in the next room. works no problem.

Thank you so much for the clear answer. I have been trying to find a universal learning remote to handle my dish dual tuner situation for a while. I thought I had it hear but clearly I don't. Thanks for the help.

If it's IR you should be able to get it to work. Will not work if the controller is RF.

This doesn't have an RF remote right? I'm not a fan of the RF remote. My Harmony remote does only iR and it works at extreme angles. People who have RF remotes seem to be happy with only RF. I only need my remote to work while I'm sitting in front of the TV.Still trying to find if users will be able to install the Popbox software onto their PH A-200 and C-200 units. The original statement seemed to sound like you can, but I haven't seen any proof.

To do anything, first you have to set it up right, program the rf-20 to take the place of all your remotes. My setup uses the audio receiver as the "heart" of the system. The DVD and cable box feed the receiver with audio and video, then the receiver feeds the projector and speakers. I hit "audio" from the main menu, then that switches the rf-20 into a control mode for the receiver. One of the menu options is "input", by pushing that button, the receiver toggles through all possible hdmi input options. You can also program one of the buttons as a "macro" which will automatically turn the components into the right operating position. It takes pre-programming about 10 steps for my system to do it right, but is very possible. To do anything, first you have to set it up right, program the rf-20 to take the place of all your remotes.

The answer is a yes and a no, yes the RECEIVER works but no the CD doesn't work and the only thing you can use it for is a flying disk, but you to download some stuff for the receiver to work so search some tutorials for how to do it on YouTube

No. It is an infrared receiver, not a transmitter. It will allow you to use a universal remote to control your PC.

Probably yes, I use an old "URC" universal remote to control both the (remote) HDMI source as well as the (local) HDMI receiver, just works.

I would also like to know about this. In addition will it work with Windows Media Center?

I do not know how the controller can work with the PC if there is no receiver. I do not know about now but common sense says yes, it still does come with the receiver

The reception seems to be pretty sensitive. When I was setting it up for my Raspberry Pi it was in a closed cabinet with other home theater components connected to an IR repeater system. Even without an IR repeater connected to the FLIRC (and the cabinet door closed) it would pickup signals being repeated to the other components. There's an unused repeater hanging loose in that cabinet which is probably the one that is bouncing signals around inside the cabinet and making it work. I know it doesn't directly answer your question, so I'll run a quick test with the FLIRC facing the back of the cabinet and the door open to simulate your scenario and report back.

I just picked up the Sony RMVZ320 Remote Control @ Best Buy yesterday for $16.99 and it works perfectly. It also handles my Comcast DVR functions, so I only have to use this remote. BTW, I'm using it with the L32HDF11TA.

This remote can learn from other remotes (you aim the two remotes at each other, tell this one to begin reading, then press the button on the other remote), so it does not actually need to know what the other remote even belongs to. I programmed some buttons this way, from remotes that it did not even know about. As long as the other remote is also infrared, it should work fine. I also have this remote turn on/off both my TV and my receiver at the same time with one keypress. It's a little slow (it takes about 2 or 3 seconds to complete the process each time you hit the "system power" button), so you have to make sure to keep the remote aimed at both sources until it's done, but it works fairly well.

you have to use the code provided by URC. It will be relatively easy. Just make sure the DirecTv remote isn't in RF mode.
