[QUOTE="craigparris1, post: 286358, member: 75254"] Hi Goulin, No probs - happy to help, anyway. Personally, I've not had any issues with the remote's responsiveness, even in my armchair about 4 metres from the sensor (I can't really get any further away from tele than this!). Responsiveness in MediaPortal and PowerDVD is very quick. I've not really used the WinPVR software, so can't tell you what the response is like with that. We do have different models of card, though, so that could also be a factor in the performance of the remote. I will agree with you, though, that it's not the best remote in the world. As you know from my previous posts, I've not been able to get the remote to wake up my PC from any state - either standby or off. Again, this could be to do with the TV card itself, or perhaps my mobo. Ultimately, I'd like to replace it with the MCE remote, but when I do I'll probably get the MCE remote/keyboard bundle, which is about $100. In the meantime, aside from having to turn on from standby by pressing the power button, I'm stoked with RC1 (and its last SVN) and the Leadtek remote. In fact, unless there's some major problem that I come up against (although that's unlikely, as I've been happily watching/recording TV and DVDs), I'll probably stick with this version for some time.
