It was a sad day when Logitech announced it would discontinue its excellent line of Harmony universal remotes. These devices let you easily control your home theater components. Complicated activities could be done with the press of a button or a virtual button in an app.
So what’s the future? Well, it’s the present. HDMI-CEC seems to be the way we’ll have to control things until some product is as good as the Harmony line. HDMI-CEC stands for High Definition Multimedia Interface - Consumer Electronics Control. If a component has HDMI-CEC it can control or be controlled by another HDMI-CEC-enabled component. Is this great? Not exactly.
