Yes, I have seen it and overcome it as well.

 

I tried a Powermid just after I moved last year and I couldn’t tolerate the damned thing, delays, commands not received, interference…you name it I got it, it was close to useless. So I expanded my Zantech IR system, slowly, as funding allowed me to and I have to say that it works almost flawlessly, yes it’s a bit more expensive but it works!

 

The Powermids now live under the coffee table where I think I threw them last in disgust.

I would love to be able to move Tivo, DVD etc else where, but I find that using a Powemid causes an annoying delay and is less reliable.  Have you seen/overcome this problems ?
