IR port on back of sa8300hd?
ok, i just connected a wireless video sender http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?produc... to my sa8300hd DVR http://scientificatlanta.com/ExplorerClubGuides/ge... so that my cable box now is connected to 3 TVs
(coax with ir extender http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?produc... to bedroom, green/red/blue to living room, yellow/red/white to wireless sender to kitchen)
the IR sender on the wireless sender is large, and partially blocks the signal when trying to use the remote in the room with the DVR... there is a connection on the back of the DVR that says "IR" which is a 1/8" phono plug.. is this an input, an output or is it disabled?
the wireless video sender IR blaster connects to the sender with a mono (2 conductor) 1/8" phono plug http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?produc... could I simply connect a 1/8" phono cord between the wireless sender and my DVR to control the DVR with the remote from the wireless video receiver in the other room?
i could not find any info about this in the manual on scientific altantic's website so if possible please provide references, or links...
(I know HDMI is better than blue/red/green... but my TV only has 1 HDMI input, and my PC was connected to that, I haven't gotten an HDMI switch yet)
i thought the diffrence between red/blue/green and hdmi was more than just 1 cable vs 5, i thought it was also digital vs analog and 720 vs 1080...

the ir plug is input its just like the ir extender you can use your dvr to turn the channels with your dvr remote audio device dvd player cable box on or off so it just like the ir blaster you have now so yes you can do that -only reason the HDMI cables are better is because of sound and vid goes thru one cable not 5 thats the only reason other than that you are still viewing HD channels with the composite connections in HD
