For those that have 2 or more dreamlink (or dreamlink + formuler) box, I would like to ask a question.
If I put these boxes side-by-side, does the remote control still control its own box without any conflict?

Thanks.

In my experience with DLs they all seem to control all their boxes which is not so good as an IKS box and an IPTV box both will control each other which is a PITA. I have no experience with Formuler boxes.

Thanks Gabacho.

eBay sells dreamlink remote control alone and it claims that it works in dreamlink T2 and formuler.
I am wondering that the same remote control will control any dreamlink and formuler box and it will create problem when people use multiple units in the same location.

Thoughts??

Formuler remotes (RCUs) are same as Dreamlink RCUs, yup.
Older and newer stb models and older and newer RCU models too, all will work with either stb

so yup, problems will arise :eek:

I tried this kinda thing once or twice, not a complete box but I put a DVD box cover stood up in front of the receiver I did not want to function with remote... well damn I had to use 2 or 3 of them DVD boxes and arrange them just right or signal would get thru... I think I had to use 3 :eek:
I shoulda thought of the cardboard box... lmao

I don't have one of them boxes but could you not just get a key board remote with a dongle and use that on one of the boxes or a blue tooth remote and use that on one if the box has blue tooth.or get two of these remotes so you can use both boxes at the same time in the same room.

I tried my DL T5 remote on DL T2 Prime and its working... I think their remote are universal for all the boxes.
