I use an IR Smart Remote, like the one on the picture. I does the job, as long as the service is up, so I've been looking for at better solution.
The Flirc is almost perfect. It is perfect to the point where I very pricey can control the different devices.
Where is a little weak, is to reach every device. It is simply not designed to emit the IR signal in all directions.
What I would love is a Flirc, that has the same hardware as the current one, just with more IR emitters. Probably designed like the many IR Smart Remotes on the market.
I'm not suggesting a device with Wi-Fi and other features from the IR Smart Remotes. Just a Flirc with multiple IR emitters.
