[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1274337, member: 141969"] Yes, I see what you mean about the description being a bit vague. :confused: I guess that with the demise of WMC, the remote control products are now oriented towards Fire sticks, Nvidia shields, and the like. The important acronyms to looks for are "MCE" or "WMC" (they mean the same thing -- Windows Media Center). The [URL='https://intesettech.com/index.php/product/iretv-usb-ir-receiver-amazon-fire-tv-nvidia-shield-kodi-mce-rasberry-pi/']Inteset product page[/URL] does mention MCE, so I think that it will work OK. Searching on Amazon finds very few hits, but Ebay is better. Hewlett Packard did a nice IR receiver, such as [URL='https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Brand-NEW-Original-Genuine-HP-USB-MCE-IR-Wireless-Receiver-Win7-Vista/251233287757?epid=7010788041&hash=item3a7eabbe4d:g:ZOEAAMXQHU1Rrex5']this one[/URL] (I have one of those). My Dell HTPC came with a Dell-branded remote and IR receiver that are identical to [URL='https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LENOVO-RC6-KIT-MICROSOFT-MCE-MEDIA-CENTER-REMOTE-CONTROL-USB-IR-RECEIVER-NEW/183706373260?hash=item2ac5c0cc8c:g:ANIAAOSwVh9cdna-']this pair[/URL] that have Lenovo branding. Both of the linked items are new, but you have to purchase from China. [COLOR=rgb(226, 80, 65)]Correction -- the Lenovo pair are in the UK.[/COLOR] -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
