I have 2 other old devices need the IR in the cabinet... I will need a 50 feet long repeater and put it below the floor board so no one will trip over it. (It is actually a closet, not a cabinet, so I can't move it. it should be able to control the TV via bluetooth? The remote came with the LG tv is bluetooth.

does the X1 remote have I/R build in when point a the tv? anyway, I should be able to use the X1 remote to turn it on / off via bluetooth as well.

I can't, TV is at one side of the room, all AV devices (AppleTV, AVR, PS5, 4k Blu-player, etc.) and X1Hub is at the opposite side of the room I even added the Sofabaton device via bluetooth to the TV, but nothing happening.

I believe LG's remote is via bluetooth, because I can be in another room pointing at another direction, it can still turn on the tv. The X1 Hub is inside a cabinet, how does the app on my iPhone can turn on the tv during initial test/setup?
