Recently something weird has started happening:
In all above scenarios I have removed the batteries from the remote control(s) to eliminate the possibility of a stuck remote button.
In all above scenarios I have turned off the lights in the room to eliminate the possibility of IR from my LED bulbs causing interference.
The TV and satellite box are in the same room, but the fan is in a different room..
Any ideas? I sometimes use a phone app called "Peel remote" which uses my and my wife's built in IR blasters in our phones to control the TV and satellite box. I have yet to eliminate that as a cause but generally the phone has to be pointed directly (intentionally) straight at the device to work.
- My TV "input selection" menu will pop up and cycle thru HDMI1/HDMI2/AV1/etc. over and over and over as if someone is holding the remote control button down.
- My satellite set top box will play/pause/play/pause really fast as if someone is holding the remote button down.
- My pedestal fan (with IR remote control) will start and stop at random during the night.
