[QUOTE="WTBHelp, post: 526703, member: 99040"] What about this remote - it's $2 more and have some good reviews on Newegg: Anyware GP-IR01BK Windows Vista Infrared MCE Black Remote Control [url=http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16880121003&cm_re=MCE_remote-_-80-121-003-_-Product]Newegg.com - Anyware GP-IR01BK Windows Vista Infrared MCE Black Remote Control[/url] Can anyone personally confirm that they have used this remote and share some of their experiences specific to MediaPortal. Thanks! I'm planning to get this TV: 32" Vizio 1080P Model VL320M [url=http://www.samsclub.com/shopping/navigate.do?dest=5&item=441170&pid=_Froogle&ci_src=14110944&ci_sku=920955]Sam's Club - 32" Vizio 1080P Full LCD HDTV[/url] For now I'm just going to hook up my HDMI from my PC and run it to the TV, using the TV speakers for sound. Down the road when I need to get 5.1, I will probably have to use the TV's SPDIF Digital Optical output. I assume I can affect the TVs sound via my HDMI cable using the remote, but would that in turn affect the SPDIF output? Thanks. Tough question I know, so if anyone has actually used this setup please post. [/QUOTE]
