Completed Shuttle mini-PC + Arduino IR receiver (1 Viewer)

[beznogi]

Hi!

Wanted to show off my set up. It is based on SHUTTLE small form factor PC, containing Hauppauge TV tuner card.
Everything is controlled through a single Harmony remote. The IR receiver is built based on Arduino Micro board with IR sensor. Arduino is emulating USB keyboad, giving me a complete control over Media Portal, including turning ON and OFF.

Here's my blog with pictures, details and source code:

Cheers!

@Stéphane Lenclud : this one can interest you, and me too.

@beznogi : you use this IR remote library ? https://github.com/z3t0/Arduino-IRremote

about the usb core, it will be added to 1.6.6 IDE.

 

[Stéphane Lenclud]

Yup, nice one

i have one idea in my head ...
but i think i need you help ... with IRSS

Still not using IRSS here

@beznogi I wonder if you could have sent HID commands rather than mapping IR signals to keyboard entries.
