[QUOTE="funkstar, post: 287706, member: 14311"] I don't believe so. Generally the IR ports on laptops are meant for low bandwidth data transfer and are not the same as remote control IR signals. Some do let you use both though. My old HP laptop came with an IR remote for contolling media players etc, never used it with MP though. (integrated graphics are not up to it). I guess it depends entirely on your laptop, after that though, I don't know enough about how MP deal with remotes to be able to help. I just use a Microsoft MCE remote as it doesn't need any configuration to work. [/QUOTE]
