Hello!
I have a situation where I have 5 sat receivers in the same cabinet, 3 are cheap IviewHD receivers, One i-Zap Tivusat receiver and a Manhattan Freesat receivers. In an ideal world I would love to control them remotely via LAN/internet. THe issue I am having is that the receivers' remotes are interfering with each other.
Do you have any suggestion on how I could avoid this issue?
Is there any other way to control these receivers?
Happy to give more details if needed, thanks!

I put black tape over the IR sensor and control that box over ethernet.

I do not know these receivers and the remotes to control them.
If all 3 receivers have the same set of codes, I'm afraid that there are no solutions.
But if they have different set of codes, then I would try to use such universal remote like Oneforall or similar, properly programmed with all codes from each receiver.
Sometimes it happens that cheap devices, although having different codes, create interferences and it becomes almost impossible or very difficult to use them.
