[QUOTE="jonny5, post: 689162, member: 108997"] I know of a few other options that could work, depending on what you are trying to do and how much effort to put into it. You could also run an [URL="http://www.eventghost.org/wiki/webserver"]Eventghost with the web server plugin[/URL] and make a webpage to have whatever functions you want to control (could use images and make a remote layout, etc). Although it would take a little bit to figure out how to make Eventghost do what you want, it seems the most straightforward. [URL="http://code.google.com/p/ipimp/"]iPimp[/URL] plugin using the Yatse application can probably do what you want, but it is designed for use by a touchscreen computer/tablet. Also I think the computer side of the [URL="http://touch-ir.webs.com/"]Touch IR+[/URL] IOS app would work. I use it to control MediaPortal and many other aspects of my HTPC with an ipod touch and ipad. I read in the most recent release notes that it is usable even without and IOS device using some "remote control" option or something. I would suggest Eventghost, the learning curve isn't bad and it should do what you want. The other two options really could be made to work, but Eventghost is more straightforward. Edit:Touch IR can't do that yet [/QUOTE]
