Is there a remote that can control both IR and RF devices? My TV, DVD player, and receiver use IR, and I use a Harmony 659 to control them.

I've added an HTPC to the mix and it is controlled by an ATI remote control that is RF.

I would like to be able to use only one remote. Is there some component I can add to this that would allow me to use just the Harmony 659?

Or is there a remote that would replace both of these and would control IR and RF devices?

Sorry, but no.

No. The reason for this is that the FCC regulates RF, and to get licenses to work with all of the various RF remotes out there, it would be very expensive.



Thank you,

At bare minimum you would need to get an IR (USB or serial )receiver and drivers. I have seen Msofts MCE IR receivers on eBay. Logitech has the MCE listed in their database so your 659 could/ should emulate it. Msoft, Streamzap and others offer remotes and IR receivers as well - most are again in Logitech db. However, I'm not sure what functionality you might lose or gain by not using the ATI control for your HTPC.
