Well, truth be told, no, I didn't check them before I left.  These were the very same IR Blasters that had been connected to the very same Slingbox Pro HD, blasting away at the original Motorola QIP 6416 without any problems.  In fact, even when the adhesive came loose from the STB and the Blasters lost their optimal position right in front of the 6416's IR port, they still performed flawlessly.  

That these same IR Blasters could spontaneously fail at exactly the moment that I upgraded the set top box, never occurred to me.  I was careful to check the IR cable connection to the Slingbox, and the aim of the Blasters to the new 7232's IR port.  All was fine.

Last time this happened to someone it turned out his wife had knocked the Blasters onto the floor during cleaning Smile

No wife, no house cleaners, no pets…  

I have the ability to power cycle the Slingbox Pro HD remotely – I've been doing that, but it hasn't helped.  I noticed the old Fios Remote, that controlled the QIP 6416 was a Philips – the new one I got with the 7232 is a model P265 v1 – not sure who the manufacturer is.  

As I mentioned earlier, it seems very strange that the FiOS 6416 remote control can also control the 7232, but the Slingbox version of the 6416 can't.  

Is there a way to reset the Slingbox Pro HD remotely (beyond just cycling the electric connection, as I've been doing)?  

Any other ideas in mind, other than the clumsy, floor-cleaning wife?  Confused

Nope, that was my final shot.  Sorry

Well, I appreciate the input.  When I figure it out, I'll post what the cause was…

Thanks again…

There's nothing worse than getting your brand new Slingbox or Monsoon Hava out  and set up, only to discover that your A/V device is unsupported. If you find yourself in this situation, you can now take matters into your own hands by creating and using custom IR remote files for your own gear.

Fortunately long time Slinger Alan Richey has created a great how-to guide on finding, creating and setting up remote files that are not included by Sling Media Slingbox.
