Hello everyone,

I have a few questions regarding media portal and setting it up to use a remote control.

- I have connected a Jeteye PC Serial IR Reciever/Transmitter to my computer
- I have an HP TV which has a universal remote where one of the device settings is to use the HP Digital Entertainment Equipment IR codes

My Questions are:
1. Is the HP Digital Entertainment equipment actually HP's media center PCs?
2. If so are their remote codes Microsoft MCE codes and are they compatible with Media Portal?
3. Can I use the Jeteye Serial IR Reciever to control media portal with my TV's remote control as a Microsoft MCE Remote or do i need a USB IR reciever?
4. If I do need a usb reciever, would anyone work or do I just have to get the Microsoft MCE reciever?

Thanks for your help, I hope I haven't worded my post to be too confusing.
