U mean, the IR power off button is actually making the mibox goes into sleep mode? Then no different from the power button on original BT remote.
Since it is in sleep mode, your IR should still work as the box is still powered even in sleep mode. Maybe you should try to press other buttons to see if it wakes the mibox up.
Anyway, why do you need a separate IR remote since it does the same thing as the Ori BT remote?
Ori BT remote - press power button, mi box goes to sleep mode, press power button again, mi box wakes up
IR remote - press power button, mi box goes to sleep mode, press power button again, mi box doesnt wakes up
Want to use the IR remote because my parents are using it for live tv and its easy to key in the numbers for channels.
Ori BT remote doesnt have keypad.
