Does this mean that even with an IR device, an RF signal will be received ok? Like, right now my DVR uses IR and it's a pain in the ass to aim my remote around my coffee table at the DVR. With the Harmony, will I not have to worry about this anymore, even though the DVR currently uses an IR remote?
There's a million Harmony remotes - Harmony One, 890, 880, 670, Xbox 360 version, 659, and 550. I mean, wtf? I have no idea which one suits my needs. Time to do research on Logitech's site I guess.
I just got a new TV (Panasonic 58" 1080p plasma) and my DVR remote really doesn't want to work with it, and I can't take using one remote to change channels and another to change TV volume.
