Housebot control of RF Remote device

Post by Steve Horn »

I’m considering replacing a DirecTV DVR with one from Spectrum (Charter). Aside from the whole issue of having only one single HDMI out, the remote, I’m told, uses RF and not IR. I’m currently controlling the DirecTV box (as well as some other stuff) using IR though a USBUIRT. So how to control a RF controlled DVR with HB? (I did try searching this forum for “RF Remote” but the search engine seems to be very limited.)

Update: Never mind. I have a plan: An Arduino, some code, and RF transmitter/receiver pair.
