I am personally interested in an IR Sender to make my old Hifi Setup smarter.

edit: I used the receiver, but they do make a remote. It looks cool but I have no experience with it.
If there’s demand this would be a good project for someone to make and have ready to build PCBs you could order from OSH Park or even a fully project that you could have JLC build and populate.
Very few people have taken the bait. I think we techies over-estimate the ability and inclination of people to make something. Even most programmers don’t want to solder. They may still be technically inclined, but want to be involved at a higher level: Buying the basic stuff and using it as a basis for even more elaborate things.
But that was never the worry. The worry is a competitor undercutting you because they do not have to recoup R&D.

If you replace 'we techies' with 'most folks' (and especially with 'folks who didn't do a thing with their hands in thei$ lives') nothing would change.
Is there any alternative?
And frustation with atsc 3 and the media landscape led to me abandoning my htpcs.
Most remotes seem to be RF not ir these days.
Maybe that's what happened, everyone who needed one bought and we don't need an upgrade
That's not an assumption, it's a premise which explicitly acknowledges that alternatives are possible.
