Using Sky Q with HD Anywhere matrix system

[biggm68]

Hi all have a HD Anywhere 8x8 matrix and currently runnign with virgin medai (tivo box as new 360 does not support ir on controls)

Thinking of swithing to sky either sky Q with extra box or Sky stream x 2 boxs

If i put the unit sin the garage where the cabnet is clearly bluetooth wont work from other rooms

can i use IR repeartes as i do now - virgin works perfectly

seeing too many conflcting responses on teh topic

pretty staight forward - ir eye out put from sky (either q or stream units) in cabinet and receiver in another rooms controlled by sky remote or universal remote

Please advise
