[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1298268, member: 141969"] I have no experience of the Flirc IR receiver, so perhaps you are using it to control other devices in addition to the HTPC, but the simplest solution would be to purchase an IR receiver that uses the MCE RC6 signalling protocol. This is simply the standard Microsoft IR receiver. Remote controls have a limited lifetime and eventually wear out, so I would never buy a pre-used remote control from Ebay, but IR receivers virtually never wear out, so for me Ebay would be a candidate source for an MCE IR receiver. If you prefer new, Inteset still sell one, available [URL='https://intesettech.com/products/inteset-iretv-usb-ir-receiver']here[/URL]. I have the remote and IR receiver shown on [URL='https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/325663928918?var=0&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&campid=5338268676&toolid=10044&customid=EAIaIQobChMI4bm9o4yUhQMVC5lQBh26zQRTEAQYAyABEgLE3_D_BwE']this Ebay page[/URL]. The seller (in China!) claims that they are new (believe that as you see fit), but the IR receiver is so sensitive that I can point the remote control anywhere in the room and MP still responds to the button presses. :eek: -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
