How flexible is the USB port on the unit ?

You could fit a USB IR Blaster receiver.

But what would the TV make of it ?
The TV needs to recognize whatever pattern
is sent to it.

With a universal learning remote, you can
copy the pulse patterns into the remote. But
it copies an IR remote to an IR remote. It
would not be able to copy an RF remote to
an IR remote.

The fifth picture down on the sidebar, shows a cheap
item with too much functionality. You want just the
receiver portion.

This is just the receiver part.

You still need a remote that sends IR light to
make this work, and the remote either needs
to be the right brand, or a universal remote
where you can (somehow) program it with a file
from the Internet.
