Re: [DVR] Remote Control Issue

My understanding is some CFL lcd tvs and some plasma displays produce some type of "glare" (for lack of another word) as a byproduct of their operation. Some of the early boxes in the 7xxx series don't have as good of an IR filter as the 6xxx series did. The "glare" from the display may mask the stb receiver from accurately detecting an inbound IR signal.

Fact or fiction - urban legend - man or myth -- don't know.
Don't have a degree in EE, physics, et al. Just what I've heard ...

I'm sure we have some students of the electromagnetic spectrum that can also weigh in on this -- shed some light (pun intended)

 There's something to it, because it's real and happening to me, but I don't understand it.

But ricosuave See Profile suggestion seems to be working for me.
