[QUOTE="mPod, post: 14504, member: 11199"] The Hauppauge cards built by TechnoTrend are not using the Hauppauge drivers, that's the reason why the supplied remote works with the supplied TV app only. I don't know any 3rd party software, which can use it. All other cards, which are built by Hauppauge (old as well as new ones) are using the Hauppauge infrared driver and are accessible by 3rd party software like Media Portal. So in case you're planning to put a PVR (or a newer Nova-T) card into your HTPC, you'd be fine, otherwise the Hauppauge remote is unusable for you. BTW, in Germany it should be no problem to get an MCE remote with the coloured buttons. It's the official Microsoft remote here in Germany. Of course, some OEM versions or imported ones could be crippled, so watch out to get the correct one. Shouldn't be a problem. [/QUOTE]
