Same here. It is a drag to watch a VCR tape outside on the deck, having
to run in when a commercial appears. Then the other person outside has
to holler when the commercial is over so the person inside can release
the FFW button.

Thing is, the remote would have be able to learn or have stored all the
info for the various gizmos. The X-10 universal remote has some of that
in there so theoretically it could be done. But as you said, it probably
hasn't.

I believe there are RF-IR links from other systems but I can't remember
who sold them. Quite frankly, sometimes I wonder why AV gear still uses
IR to remote control it. Doesn't make much sense.
