I have a BH200, which I love, and I already had an LRH-890 which I use as a PVR and burn the recordings to DVD for storage. Unfortunately, both remote controls use the same codes, so when I turn one on, both go on; when I hit the eject button, both open up; when I go into the set up, both go into set up. Yesterday, I discovered that while resetting the time on the LRH-890 after a power outage, I had switched the BH200 to Spanish! Anyone know a way around this? I've emailed LG's service, but had no reply.
Thanks,
Mike

If you get a universal remote like the Logitech Harmoney 890 or 1000 it has RF capabilities and you can set up one of the components to use RF from a IR repeater and have the other LG unit to use the IR from the Harmoney remote. I have two pioneer units that use the same IR frequencies and I have mine both set up to use the RF, this is possible because not only can you tell your Harmoney to use RF but also asign the output ports to a specifics IR repaeter!!!!!

Apologies for not replying sooner to thank you for your advice, but life has been hectic. I already have a Logitech 880 remote (a couple of years old now), which I believe does not do RF. A 1000 + an RF extender would take me into the price range (over $400 CDN) where I can buy my satellite company's PVR. Seems a little uneconomical as a solution. Any other possibilities?
