I use the method that mPod suggested. MCE remote works perfectly (although I only use it to wake from Hibernate, but I am sure it works from off too since hibernate is the same state essentially).
Also, I have two Comrpo TV Tuner cards and they come with a connector for the PC Power switch which turns the Computer on from full...

I'm almost done with my Media PC except for the IR blaster setup. I purchased a Hauppauge 1062 PCI Interface WinTV-PVR-150 MCE Kit Tuner Card. The Kit included a remote, reciever and IR blaster. I can not get the blaster to work and would like to purchase a separate IR blaster to control my set top box.
Can anyone recommend a...

Btw, I'd suggest an NVIDIA 6600GT, supports all hardware deinterlacing features, incl. HD support.
As a remote, I'd suggest the international version of the MCE 2005 remote (with coloured buttons).

Hello,
I have just builded my own HTPC.
Now I'm searching for a good remote.
First of all, the remote must work with RF-signals cause the HTPC is placed in a closed cupboard. And also because it's much easier to work with.
Secondly, I also want to control my LCD-TV (Samsung LE32R72B) and my amplifier with te remote.

I have an MCE remote, which is great for channel surfing, etc. because of its profile (and because, compared to my STB-DVD-TV configuration, MediaPortal has everything in one interface). I also have a Pronto TSU-7000 (ProntoPro NG) which handles all my individual devices, advanced features, etc. Both are IR, which serves me fine since...

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 use two different keyboards in 2 HTPC and they both work in XP PRO or XP MCE. Neither work in BIOs and I have found only a hardware wired keyb and mouse will do that. 1st one is the MCE Keyboard with thumb mouse that in time and practice works. 2nd one is when I need to do more typing as I have had RSI since 1986 is the MS...

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.
I might do it on my next HTPC after the current one turns into a media server.

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...

Hi, currently have a Hauppauge hvr-1300 with ir blaster support working out fine with Media Portal (except for the fact that the PC cannot start from the remote).
