I'd like to control some IR devices via my PC to do tasks such as - put my projector screen up/down and turn on my projector.
I'd really like to be able to script it via command line too.
What hardware do i need to send IR signals from my pc? I found the usbuirt - but I really can't see spending $50 + 20 shipping on one of those... there has to be a cheaper alternative. I know some of the hauppauge cards have onboard IR blasters.... would I be able to send commands through that? What software would I use?
