Stopping my Apple TV remote controlling my Apple dock
rewind

I have an old iPod Classic connected to an Apple dock which is connected to my A/V receiver. Every time I use my Apple remote to control my Apple TV, it controls the iPod Classic too. It's not a major problem as I can't hear it but I can obviously see the screen turn on and change tracks.
Is there a way of making my remote control only control the Apple TV? I also have a MacBook Pro and managed to turn the IR receiver off on that. I don't want to turn off the IR receiver on the dock as I have a Harmony remote which I use to control it. I just don't want the Apple remote doing it!
Thanks.

all that will result in is the appletv only responding to that one remote control - it will have no affect on the ipod dock.
the only only to stop that will be to put a piece of tape over the IR receiver on the dock or point the dock in a direction so that the remote doesn't hit it.

Hope that helps.
