Unfortunately, you can't control the on/off of the PS3 with just the USB-IR dongle. The dongle requires the power from the USB in order to receive IR commands. There is, however, a recent solution by Schmartz that provides on/off control by attaching a sticker to the on/off touch-sensitive button; however, the cost is $50. My understanding is that the Schmartz device uses a different code-set than the Nyko device.

Since I am usually inserting a Blu-Ray disk anyway when I'm starting the PS3, the lack of "on" control by remote hasn't bothered me. I just wish that Sony would add an option for the PS3 to automatically power off after a period of non-use. I tend to forget to turn the PS3 off. 

I use a Sony DVD NS95 in PUC list and it works 99.9%. 

I have done my own buttons in Beo5 

I had BM1 before PS3 ;-).

The downside with PS3 is that you can not use it in linkroom if it´s connected with HDMI!

This yellow dog thing, can you explain more what it is please? 

I get Ps3 in my link room , don't know if I can control it yet in the link room till I configure the Beo5 with the Nyko . Would prefer to use the Beo4 in there , my dealer is coming on Friday to flash my Bv7-40 so I can .

have you PS3 and BV7 in linkroom ?
