I
have
all my kit hidden away in node 0, with a powermid doing the IR control form
e.
I
haven't had a problem with delays in it - though I do find sunlight
fallingd
irectly on the transmitter causes it to fail to pick up
signals.
Also,
occasionally, the LED indicating it is xmitting sometimes is on
permanently, as
if someone is sitting on a remote - which they are not, but it doesn't
interfere
with controlling other devices so I don't care......
What I
_have_ found is that it is slightly inconvenient/annoying to have to go out
of
the room to put on a DVD or video, but it's not so often to be a major
problem. At the time, I bought a 300 disc CD changer rather than the
(at
the time) recently released DVD changer because the DVD changer was not
compatible with my Slinke interface.
If I
was to do it again, I'd get a 400 disc DVD changer and ditch the CD changer
in
favour of Audiotrons and a music server.
This
is kind of happening now as I've got an audiotron and another on the way
soon,
though I will be de-centralising it because SWMBO is not very HA compliant
so
she can fiddle with the knobs on the front of the Audiotron, whilst I
control it
>from
It
will still be tied to the distributed audio system because I'll use a KAT
5m
odule to link it back to the central amp.
Tony.

ShowShifter vs. TiVo
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 ?
