MP1 MP2 Replacement IR emitter for blasting? (1 Viewer) DE
I've managed to misplace the 2 IR emitters that come with the MCE Remote. And I can't really find anyone selling them. So I was wondering if I could use the IR cable that came with my tv tuner card (technotrend 1500) its meant for receiving signal, so the question is can I use it to blast signal? Thanks a lot in advance.

Well, i don't have any experience on upscaling nor ffdshow because i use the powerdvd codec. But the reason is obvious relied to your codec configuration since VLC uses it's own integrated codec, so i guess the movies you watch in VLC aren't upscaled afterall....
