Need help picking a Remote Control (1 Viewer)

[pmwolf]

Hi all
I found Media Portal this summer and I love it.

I am thinking about getting a remote Control for my HTCP but I am unsure of which one to get.

All I need it to control is Media Portal and Media Player Classic which I use as my external player

Any help would be great.


Thanks all

I use the HP MCE remote/blaster. Since it works so well I have one for all three clients now. You can find these on e-bay new for around 15.00 €.

It works out the box with MP.

If you want to use the blasting function, f.i. to control an amplifier or TV you need the IRSS plug-in or use HM Remote Key s/w as I do. The latter is free unless you want to be able to blast on events (like power up, shutdown, etc.) then you pay a small fee for the all-in version. With HMRK you can also define different profiles for f.i. MP and MPC.

For more on remote controls, check out the h/w section of the forum.
