With the addition of my new 7.4 speaker I've moved the IR eye from below the plasma to the wall above the light switch like I have it in some of my link rooms. Now I find myself wanting to turn off the TV (BS1) by hitting the non-functioning power button on the eye when I leave the room. Since my other rooms allow for Power and Volume control from the IR eye I was wondering if the BS1 had the ability to fuction in this way using one of the fully functioning IR eyes.
From what I can tell the plasma protected IR eye that I'm using (from Lintronic) appears to be the same as the others except for no markings on the face for volume. Additionally, there were only three wires connected with the supplied cable.
If it's confirmed that the BS1 cannot drive the full capabilities of the IR eye then could the lintronic box do it and then pass the commands over to the BS1 as IR inputs?
