Thanks for the advice. I may look for it or contact them - it was a pain to deal with. I would install the software, and when first launched it I could click add / delete buttons for the remote and could add some iMon remotes (although there was no PAD option, just EX and a couple others, or generic RC). I would switch to it and...

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.

Is there an alternative...
Yes I've ordered the antec case. I bought one before and managed to make it work. I created the shortcuts by hand. (bind button to keyboard shortcut). Probably not the best way but it works perfectly :). ((in vista)).
If the reception of the case isn't sufficient what would be the best way to increase it?

Hi all,
This is probably one of those questions that have an obvious answer, and I'm just not able to find the solution:-)

URC-100
I'd recommend the URC-100. This is a nice RF + IR remote that can do 8 devices, and fully learnable (plus JTAG interface!), with over 40 keys. There's a very good discussion of this remote (and its bigger brothers) at

Hi Gal,
Sorry for the delay, I didn't receive the notification (or I didn't see it).
Using an USB->Parallel adapter should resolve the problem, but it add a component in the list.

I bought a remote control as the image (in the center of the image). I can not set up to work with the standard MCE receiver. It does not work in Windows is (XP, Windows 7), nor in MediaPortal.

Hi,
yes the remote itself may be "filled" with the MCE-remote keys (or any other) and is then supported by MP.
You only need a compliant IR-Receiver (like iMon, Itrans, MCE-Receiver etc)

Same problem here on my ASUS EeePC!
Problem is only with Philips remote. On my second EePC I am using another IR receiver and there is no problem.
With Philips on ASUS I have to plugin the receiver a few seconds after system boots - then the receiver works.
I will try to find a fix on ASUS homepage.

Not sure if this is still relevant, but I have just got some of these receivers. The big issue I had was the amount of power they require. 500ma. Make sure you have no other devices sharing the power with it, or hang it off a powered hub if needs be.

Hi brokenrobot
Did you manage to get this sorted? If Windows doesn't want to use the driver with your remote then it may be because your remote has a slightly different USB ID. If it is in the same family as the remotes that other people have got working then you should still be able to look for the MaxRepeatPauseInterval and...
