I am interested in it for a long time! If you go the Bluetooth to IR converter it seems you will likely
need a second remote anyways. Then wouldn't just make sense to stick
with the PS3 Bluetooth remote?

Hi...
I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this or not, but, I can't get my brand new remote to work. Is there something that I need to do to get it to work? (It's the Sony Remote, not the game controller)

Thanks

I really don't see the point in getting a remote. I always have the control in my hands or near by and I'm so used to it now it feels like part of me.

I wouldn't want to ruin the relationship I have with my control by having an affair with a remote control

The PS3 has been a defining purchase in terms of my home entertainment system.

It has allowed me to play High def Games whilst also giving me the best of high definition movies.

All for under £300

Bite on that Xbox

As fantastic as the PS3 is, if I had the ultimate choice of control and accuracy, it would have to be a keyboard and mouse!

I am the developer of the ps3toothfairy. You really don't need a PS2 remote, almost all universal remotes now have the PS2 codes. The Harmony has codes already for all the aforementioned devices, so no need to learn them there either. That goes for all the devices, not just mine. Also, the main difference between the devices is that the ps3toothfairy has the shutdown sequences built in as a user reprogrammable macro and has a wired IR interface for use with the home automation system, Xantech repeater or like, or logitech Harmony extender. Also, you should not power it from the PS3 usb port since that port is turned off when the device is powered down. There is a tiny adapter available for AC power.

@PS3 Addict

If you want an ultimate edge in COD4 you don't want to use the ps3 controller, its ok for a day-to-day player, but if your a serious player and you want a real edge you want to be using a keyboard and mouse which can be achieved using this:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/XFPS-RATE-UP-KEYBOARD-MOUSE-RATEUP-PS3-PLAYSTATION-3-UK_W0QQitemZ350094749948QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item350094749948&_trkparms=72%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C240%3A1318&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

This item will allow you to set up auto fire and key and button mapping and it works on practicaly every games console out there (almost), also it works the opposite way round linking up controllers to the PC and such. This one is a bit pricey but a good example. You can find cheaper versions out there. But if you want an edge you want this!

I personaly don't use this (I am your average day-to-day player xD). But I have used it, and I will probably use this when Final Fantasy comes out (maybe).

The Logitech remotes are not overpriced, they're actually offer a great value. If you have an advanced home theater setup, with multiple components that each have multi-level setup menus, then having a single Harmony Logitech remote able to handle every component is a bargain for the price. All I need to do is choose from buttons that say "Watch TV", "Watch a Movie", "Play Playstation 3", etc., and the remote adjusts every component setting accordingly. It's that easy. Plus, it's future proof, because it's bank of remote codes is actively updated with Logitech's master database via the web. As new components are released, Harmony remotes can easily access the codes to operate it.

If you have just a 27" TV and a DVD player, then there's no need for a Harmony remote. The TV remote can probably handle the task, or you can find a cheapie universal remote that can do it. However, if you have a fairly advanced setup, there aren't too many options cheaper than the Harmony remotes that will offer a one-remote solution. There certainly aren't any easier to use.

Kingofgrills, Logitech harmony is way overpriced and so are others. I have been using the Nyko and have been working like charm. I have a 3 year old son and you can imagine the frustration I have to go through every time he breaks a remote.

It's a fairly good article detailing the remote control dilemna, but there is a fairly easy solution for IR support. If you use a Logitech Harmony remote control, or any other IR based universal remote control, you can get it to work with the PS3. The PS3 IR converter boxes shown above(PS3ToothFairy, IR2BT, PS3-IR PRO) are overpriced adapters and should be avoided. Instead, purchase the Nyko Blu-Wave Remote for 15, and use the included USB IR adapter to allow your existing Harmony or other universal remote to control the PS3. If you have a Harmony remote, the PC software manager will set up your button configuration for PS3 functions, including designated PS3 specific buttons for circle, square, triangle, and X. Next take the universal remote and have it learn each of the commands for those buttons directly from the NYKO remote. Test the remote out on the PS3, and if you have slow response time or double command entries (hit pause once, remote sends pause twice), a quick adjustment of the command delay settings will correct it. The whole process from start to finish took me about 10 minutes. By using this solution I've been able to use my Logitech Harmony 880 remote as the single remote again in my home theater room.

The Nyko remote for $15 will provide a better remote solution than those specific adapters that are $55 or higher. For anyone with a PS3, I highly recommend giving it a try.

Well at least your not bashing the ps3's functionality and chucking out unresearched nonsense.

You make some good points in this artice, its a big improvement. To your bluetooth and IR functionality, there are quite a few of these nameless chinese manufacturers who are actually making such devices and at a relatively cheap price at that, occasionaly you see them pop-up on ebay. I recently got myself an IR, Bluetooth and GPRS smart touch screen phone watch off of ebay which I can use to control both my ps3 and my my IR projector all for around £15 with £20 P&P.

But lets face it, IR is a bit of a step backward as far as technology goes, you might as well just have one IR remote for your IR devices and one multiple programmable bluetooth remote for all your bluetooth devices, IR does still have its uses but as far as the ps3 goes, adding IR in would be a MASSIVE step backward and a pointless manufacturing cost.

Of course this is just my opinion, I could be wrong ^^

I personally use the Nyko Blu-Wave adapter with a Logitech Harmony 880 remote. The Harmony remote is expensive, but in general it works great (minus the powering on or off, but I need to put the disc in and out, so I don't mind so much).

If you go the Bluetooth to IR converter it seems you will likely need a second remote anyways. Then wouldn't just make sense to stick with the PS3 Bluetooth remote?

Come'on. You got to love the idea of controlling your PS3 from just about anywhere in the house! I have frequently used my PS3 for music and it comes in very handy when you are not in direct line of sight with the unit (i.e.: Kitchen, patio, bathroom... don't ask...)

Good info though, did not know half of those devices even existed.

Hey good review. I had posted a comment regarding these multiple remote options in your earlier ps3 post about your experience with a new ps3. I would like to think that it served as a starting point for your research or you might have figured these by yourself anyway. Great we need more articles like this so everybody knows there are options.
