We never ever ever sell consumer grade plasma's
(they look like crap right now) We sell only commercial
(pro) plasmas
You can get Plasma proof ir targets or just locate
you target away from plasma.
We will sometimes install 2 targets inside the
front right and left speakers under the grills
. that way they are invisible and not
as susceptible to ir/sun/plasma/ florescent lights.
As to the electrical tape over the targets GIVE
ME A BREAK do you use electrical tape for securing
your wires too ? Plllease .
Do you get paid for this ?
Yes Sheikster is correct the tides they are a
changin.
I think you should cut him some slack.
I just worked on a job with lots of small rooms and plasmas. Sometimes you just can't get a spot where the IR receivers are spray free.
I am not a hardware guy (software is where the money is!) but I struggled with them through many rooms. An IR receiver under the monitor worked well, until someone walked in front of it and reflected back on the receiver. Going to a CFL friendly receiver did help. There doesn't seem to be a magic bullet which will fix any setup. What worked here was to cover up about 2/3 of the receiver. Instead of the long rectangle, we ended up with just the end. Worked great! Yes, the range was shortened, but these are not large rooms anyway.
They contacted Xantech, and their reply was simply to do whatever it takes.
On the good news front, they did report they were about a month away from shipping a Plasma Friendly IR Receiver.
