I think it would be wonderful if my iPhone could serve as the remote for my Home Theater system.

If the iPhone can remotely control my iTunes on my MacBook Pro why can't it control my A/V system?

My A/V Receiver is a Yamaha RX-V757 (RAV272) remote part no WE458300

I have a Time Warner HD DVR cable box

and my TV is a Samsung 43" DLP Samsung HLN437W

Yes it can. That's what I do.

Check out Intelliremote in the appstore. You'll find the link for the home page there and everything you'll need.

The intelliremote forum is the best place for support.

isn't that for a PC based home theater setup? I think he's trying to make the iPhone act as if it were similar to a logitech harmony remote...which from what i know Intelliremote cannot do.

I use it just for Home Theatre, not PC control.

The iPhone can then work better than a Harmony (which I also have) as Intelliremote can be programmed using AutoIt for more flexibility.

I control my A/V amp, 2 Satellite boxes, DVD player, lights and even my garage door from my iPhone via Intelliremote.

It does require an IR blaster connected to your PC though.

thats pretty neat...i want to do this now.

Which one?

Intellliremote, the Intelliremote app, or the recommended USB-UIRT blaster?

The Intelliremote forum has an iPhone specific section which is the best place for help. The developer is really good at responding and resolving issues (which are usually router/firewall related).

Thanks, Intelliremote seems like a cool app but I don't use a PC and so I don't think it will work for me.

Since the iPhone doesn't have infared I must assume what I'm trying to achieve isn't possible.
