So you are saying electronics aren't capable of translating 1s and 0s?
Silly?
Quite silly.
I think you are a little short sighted.
I think you are a lot short sighted.
The technology is very possible.
I never said it wasn't dipshit. Learn to read. Then learn how to
comprehend what you read correctly. You remark, is however, quite
indicative of how little you know about networking, and the TCP/IP stack,
in particular.
I am just not sure how costly it
would be.
No shit, Dip Tracy. Which is why I said wiring a universal remote,
which already has the capacity to control all of those items, would be
far easier.
That is why I asked the question.
It is obvious why you asked the question. It is because you are about
as green as it gets, and your reading skill are likely why you do not
already know why it is not feasible, and remain green.
You seem to be saying it couldn't happen.
I never said that. You seem to think it is some cake little radio
shack hobby kit.
First off, it is overkill. Since a TV only has a very, very short list
of functions that can or would need to be controlled. A VCR has even
fewer, considering that all would be done via existing internal menus.
You would be better off making a blue tooth to IR remote device that
you program to control a device, that you access via BT wireless.
Or is that too goddamned deep for you to figure out as well?
There... asshole. I just gave you an idea for a multi-million dollar
device, considering that there are millions of idiots just like you, that
want to cling to old gear, yet control it with the new gear.
When you make the product, I'll take 3% commission.
