Re: Using a PC to control IR stuff

Has anyone used a USB UIRT (universal infared receiver transmitter) with a computer? My main goal is to use a laptop to control all my mis-match AV equipment.

I was thinking it would be cool if I were able to control all my A/V equipment with a computer. Does anyone know if there is software that could do this?

Lintronic have a product that may fit your needs. The TT455-RT-238 can control almost any IR product and can be controlled by these plus PC and more.

I'm using my computer to control my 1.5Tb of movies, pictures, television, music, tv-tunner via Windows Media Center.

I had before a Logitech 1000 universal remote that I just sold in order to buy tomorrow a Beo5.

However, I found a clever solution in controlling everything by using an MX Air Logitech Mouse. That is really great and I am really happy with this solution.
