I use a Logitech 785 remote with MediaPortal with great success. I have an iMon remote module on the computer case which gets all the signals from the remote without too many hitches. The initial set up of the remote was a good few hours worth of work compared to a plug and play solution like the keyboard and mouse, but it's very...

My Zalman case 160HD has also such an function. It comes with an embedded IrTrans receiver and a MCE remote. PowerUp is working from all power states. IrTrans is pretty flexible... so you can normally also use every other ir remote for it... if you want.

Just a question... I'm sure the mapping of special buttons cause no problem with setpoint installed properly. But how about those special features, like skipping track by just waving your hand? Did you manage to get that working with Mediaportal or do you even think it's possible without too much trouble? I've just received and MX air...

You can program all special media keys using this: https://www.team-mediaportal.com/files/Download/SystemUtilities/EventGhost/ but i recommend you to use this keyboard: http://www.gadgetcentre.com/news/images/Genius-Luxemate-810.jpg in my modest oppinion it's much better than BTC 9029URF III MCE

How would the ATI remote wonder compare to the MCE remote. They are about the same price on Ebay. I know ATI is RF and MCE is IR. Are there any differences that make one better than the other.

I recently purchased an MCE remote, and it came with two IR blaster cables to control devices like TV, stereo, etc.
I paid AUD$40, so you should be able to get the MCE remote for EUR20.
The bonus is that the device works straight away with MediaPortal. If you use the MCEPlugin for MediaPortal, you should then be able to control the...

I've thought of moding mine a few times. Probilly would be best to disassemble it and steal a cable with a connector for internal usb header pins off something else, they should have the same colour wires.
