Hello all.
Firstly I'll give you a little background. I bought a portable DVD player for my daughter (who's 2yo) so when we're going on long car trips she can watch her TV favs like Peppa Pig and Thomas Tank. Bottom line the DVD player turned out to be rubbish so i came up with the idea of using a HP TC4200 TabletPC with XP Tablet Edition on, so the device gets strapped to the front seat then my girlfriend can control the screen using the tabletPC pen.
I've tried this a few days ago with the Mediaportal software running but i'm not sure how (if its possible) to access functions like play/pause, skip, fast forward etc.
Is it possible to control all functions of Mediaportal using only the functions a mouse / pen provide??
Alternitivly i've been looking at things like these: Wireless Trackball Remote Mice Media Center MCE HTPC PC on eBay, also, PC Remote Controls, Input Devices, Computing (end time 15-May-09 02:04:41 BST)
Can anyone recommend a bluetooth/RF remote which doesn't break the bank?? which is also mediaportal suitable??
Cheers
