There was a brief power interruption at my house, which caused my receivers to reboot: The HR54 server, 2 C61K clients, and other older, legacy receivers. When power came back and everything rebooted, everything except the 2 TVs connected to the 2 C61Ks worked fine. Both C61K clients required I ente

I cannot get my new Denon avr to pair with my genie remote

Just upgraded our 20-year-old avr with a Denon avr-S570BT. I have searched for hours to try to find an answer to why I cannot get it to pair with our Genie RC73 remote.

Gemini remote

Just curious about what others think about the Gemini remote? I personally think it is a swing and a miss. The ergonomics of it aren't good. It has an odd shape, it doesn't feel good in your hand, the number buttons are too low on the remote and the lettering on the buttons are too dark. The backlig
