Title: How to connect Vizio L32 to Core
Post by: UNi on April 21, 2009, 08:18:57 pm

I've got my Denon receiver now with RS232 port and I know how that connects to the Core, but how do I get my LCD TV to connect?  I'm running an HDMI cable for the video already so there are no more HDMI ports.  It does not have an RS232 input.  I do have an S/PDIF out port on my mobo and all the other standard connection on the LCD TV, just not RS232.

Anyone clarify this?

Thanks,
UNi

Use a USB UIRT and get a Xantech 286 double emitter.. attach one emitter to the IR window on the TV. Create a template for the TV using the existing remote.

Just passing on Thom's specific advice to me after LOTS of IR problems:

Use the 286M emitters; they work perfectly with the UIRT.
