One ought to be able to build a remote control transmitter for well
under $ 100.  My sony VCR uses a 21 bit code.  The actual details
for timing for the infrared LED are in the service manual.  If you
wanted to build something as a microcomputer peripheral, you could
do it for less than $ 10.

Unfortunately, there is no universal set of codes, so you'll have
to program the transmitter separately for each remote control device
you have.
