It won't work with the PS3 because the remote uses IR and the PS3 uses bluetooth.

They have an adapter now that will work with the PS3, but unfortunately it's more money than the remote itself...

I don't know if it will work with Tivo. It does have some backlit keys, but the number pad isn't, nor are the Fast Forward and Rewind buttons.

I use with a security DVR so it would likely work with a Tivo but you have to hook it to something to record.

if your console has hdmi only ...it works on hdtv sets the higher the resolution the better ....does your hdtv has hdmi input...some set have more the one hdmi inputs..theres websites that can give more detail about your ps3 hdmi....or go to sony website...

It is highly unlikely you'll get this to work with Tivo is my take after spending a lot of time with these things last year. If there is an IR extender input on the back perhaps, but my cable box had such and input and this still didn't work. What I did find that worked great, not with Tivo but I have to believe it would is the following item. Don't know if this meets your needs but it worked for me. --Sewell BlastIR SW-29311 Infrared (IR) Remote Control Receiver Kit (Black). Good luck, HR

Sorry, Josh. I can state for a fact that this unit will NOT work with Directv. I had them and dropped them due increasing price increases. Tivo units will work ONLY with cable systems (I.E. verizon, comcast). Good luck. Mo

I don't know about PS3 but I use it with my Sony BluRay. I would imagine it will work.

If you have both a directv dvr and TiVo then yes. Cheaper to have only one or the other . Have you seen new monster TiVo? Expensive but huge dvr capacity!

I'm not sure about TiVo, but it didn't control our Boise system or sound bar. Basically it's been living in a drawer since day 2!

I couldn't get this to work with a PS3, and it is made for that. I would say keep looking. If the official sony remote will work, then go that route, if not, you may be stuck.

Yes, it has nothing to do with tv itself, it is more related to the console region, but this one is region free so will work on any ps3.

it is a simple IR passthrough, so it works with any IR remote. no programing needed, the receiver captures the IR single from the remote and blast it out the transmitters. I am currently using it with a Uverse system and Sony Stereo that are in a closet near the TV. even works with the PS3 with a IR adapter. Doesn't work natively with the PS3 (bluetooth) or the Boxee Box (RF), but those are not line of site so no extender needed. one thing to look out for is the positioning of the transmitters. make sure no components are in the line of fire of the remote and the receivers. the two signals seem to cancel each other out. I have the extender receiver mounted under my TV, using a Harmony One remote. all other components are hidden away in a nearby closet. Just point the remote at the tv everything works.

I have a premiere as well. It works with the premiere. There is a USB fob that plugs in the back, which allows it to work without a line of site to the tivo.

I don't know for sure. It should work fine with TIVO but your cable provider would know if anything else would be required, ie: a cable card for the TIVO box.

Does your Dish Hopper have an eSATA connection on the back? If so, then that is likely what you would have to use. Your best bet is to ask the Dish Network people what kinda device you could use with this. I haven't looked into Dish stuff in a long time. My dad was the only one that had it. All I remember about it is that they charge you an extra $5 a month (I think) to enable this feature. It really isn't worth it in my opinion. If you wanna save stuff off of it for future viewing, I would suggest looking around the internet for applications for your computer that would enable you to save content off of it instead of trying to add an external drive. For example, for a TiVo there are several programs that you can get that will not only decrypt the TiVo files of the shows, but will rip the commercials out of the shows as well as format the resulting file for any kind of player you might have. Just my $0.02 worth.

Even I am looking for a similar answer. Please let me know if this or some other one that particularly works with PS3. Thanks
