I don't know what to call it really. Maybe I'll finish my home entertainment unit in the next couple of months and it has timber doors that I'll want to keep closed most of the time. So I need to solve the problem of remote activation for a DVD player and stereo when there's no line of sight. I've heard there might be such a thing available to do this. Do you know of it and what it's called?

Also saw a 'One For All' brand repeater setup at Dick Smith while I was there yesterday. I think it was less than $50, no idea how well it works...
