Over the decades I have had many IR devices and they all have somewhat different IR patterns. Some manuals are nice enough to document this: for example, one allowed 45 degrees off-axis horizontally, but only 10 degrees vertically. I’m guessing they do stuff like that to reduce interference from overhead lights. On the high-up one you might try angling it more downward. This might improve the picture too as a lot of LCDs have inaccurate color off-axis. Of course, like @Tivoburkee said, it’s great to have the Wi-Fi remote option too!
Banned but back. Because why not?
