[QUOTE="RobAtBentley, post: 1086687, member: 143057"] Hi Ben1210... No, I never did get the old VRC1100 working for the green-button issue. I finally went for a handful of HP units (HP USB Microsoft MCE Media center IR HP Remote Control RC6 Kit) that have been working well ever since. The secret seemed to be in the RC6 compatibility and the VRC1100 didn't have that in its spec. The HP kits are available on Amazon for about £17 - see [URL='http://www.amazon.co.uk/Remote-Control-Receiver-Emitter-Vista/dp/B00AYE6JDO/ref=sr_1_fkmr1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1402857213&sr=8-1-fkmr1&keywords=HP+USB+Microsoft+MCE+Media+center+IR+HP+Remote+Control+RC6+Kit']this example[/URL]. The only problem with the HPs is that they don't have any back-lit buttons so not great in a dark room - may be worth looking for something a bit more upmarket if this is a problems for you too. Happy hunting. [/QUOTE]
