Hi all.
First post here and I'm new to open source stuff. I'm building an HTPC for minimum outlay and for the remote control aspect I've found what seems to be a good vfm (ie €20) self-build USB IR device from a German overclockers site:
(http://fanshop.ocinside.de/cgi-bin/shop/shop.cgi?id=&view=1&grpnr=1&subgrpnr=4&grplevel=2&lang=en).
I would then plan to use it with my existing 3 in 1 TV/DVD/VCR remote (ie assign MP to the now freshly deceased VCR switch).
It comes with appropriate USB drivers, but how could I determine if MP could be setup to use A.N.Other IR rx? It does seem to use Girder like the USBIRT product that is in the MP supported list however at $75US I'm not so fussed with it.
Thanks for any thoughts!
Cheers.
