you can't use IrDA adaptors for remote controls. I can't read much of that site you linked to, but the fact it mentions SIR etc means it is an IrDA connector. Your best bet is to get an MCE controller. They are quite cheap and give you a LOT more as well (blasters, well designed remote and USB receiver). The extra money will...
