Evan,

Look at it this way... if the device is IR controllable or can be adapted to do so (PC) then the Logitech would likely be able to control it.

It was starting to sound like it would control ANYTHING haha.

A system selector is a device that is basically a hub for a/v sources. This enables you to route multiple sources to a tv or amp that may have a limited number of inputs.

Here is one i was considering

The RF-Link AVS-41i is IR controlled and came back w/ a green light from Logitech.

If you decide you want to do this... I will be happy to help.

Terrific! I am going to try to get the ball rolling and I will certainly let you know once I am ready to proceed.

Thanks Jeff! 🤒

Okay Jeff this project should be starting soon, fingers crossed. Does the 880 have a timer/wake up function by chance? do any of the harmonies have a feature like that?

Parents are asking for birthday wishes so i thought of this straight away! 🤒

What do you mean? The remote itself? Or do you mean to program timer settings in your BM4500?

I'm pretty sure my BM does not have the timer function, first s/w version.

What I mean is: does the remote have the ability to turn on components at a desired time? -> waking me up like an alarm.

Like; CD, track 2 GO @ 6:00 AM? for example...

(Bump!)

Hey Jeff! Just picked up a new universal remote yesterday!

Not a harmony, but a step in the right direction, a Philips Prestigo (SRU 8112). I have cut out all of my remotes but one. Can you guess which one remains? 😂

The TV, DVD and iPod were setup on screen, super easy. My Beo and other audio are manual "learn" entries. Nearly a whole afternoon's work! 😎

I have managed to get the Beo to work, however the remote needs to be within a foot of the beomaster! The Philips operates everything else from a great distance. Is there a reason for this?

I made the purchase based on the final status of the product, half price clearance!😁

You have the incorrect or no carrier frequency. B&O uses a carrier frequency of 455 Khz and for almost all others products on the planet the carrier frequency will be between 20 and 80 Khz

It hurts me to see that people want a Universal Remote. Why? I'd rather have a B&O remote on the table (most people think it's beautifull) then a cheap plastic remote that 90% have on their table (they all look the same!, at least to me they do).

As stated above the price can not be the reason to buy a Universal Remote. So why a Universal when you can buy a true design remote that belongs to your tv?
