[QUOTE="michrech, post: 369367, member: 87931"] [b]HVR-1250 and it's remote[/b] That's good to hear. If I don't find a stand-alone remote in the next few days, I'll probably pick up this card (it's just as cheap as many of the remotes available now, if not cheaper.. heh). I don't subscribe to cable, but I do have cable internet service, so I'll be able to do some tinkering to see if I can get anything at all. At worst, it should work for the new digital OTA signals, no? My brother bought some sort of "Vista" remote and has been trying for MONTHS to get it to work. He's spent more time on that than playing WoW, which really says something for him.. heeheh So far, he's had zero luck with it. Do these "Vista" remotes work in something like Vista Home, or does it *require* MCE/Premium for it to work? I can get a very cheap version of Vista Home Basic through my employer, so if that version will work with these Vista remotes, that may be an even better option for me. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
