Audio Extractor / Arc

[Equity]

HI Guys
I wonder if anyone could point me in the right direction.
I would like to control my AVR (non ARC) with my tv remote. I was thinking of getting a new AVR with all the bells and whistles, but I see a much cheaper option (although not "the best" option) would be to get a audio extractor.
Such as the one below.

Does anyone have experience, or can recommend one that works well?

Thanks very much
