[QUOTE="magao, post: 383882, member: 86026"] Hauppage MCE USB remote (RC6) - uses the MCE drivers - AU$50 + shipping. It also works with the MCE support in my iMON LCD/IR receiver. [url=http://www.skycomp.com.au/product.aspx?id=145351]Computer Store - Hauppauge MCE Remote Control Kit, USB - $50[/url] I haven't actually tried it with the MP MCE support, as I use EventGhost to control MP and other applications. It works beautifully with the EventGhost MCE plugin. I'm also just using the receiver part, as I'm using a Logitech Harmony. Do [B]not[/B] get something like the "MCE" remote available from Jaycar - it simply issues keystrokes, and it does it badly - for example, if you want to use a button that issues "Ctrl+Shift+F" it issues the following set of keystrokes: Ctrl Ctrl+Shift Ctrl+Shift+F Shift+F F That's [B]really[/B] bad because after picking up on the "Ctrl+Shift+F" keystroke, you've then got a "Shift+F" and "F" keystroke you need to deal with. It [B]should[/B] be: Ctrl Ctrl+Shift Ctrl+Shift+F Ctrl+Shift Ctrl [/QUOTE]
