Ah, yes... JP1 would probably work.  Does the remote he linked to have 
JP1 capability?  I couldn't view the link, so I don't know.  Most 
univeral remotes don't have a JP1 connector, though some have holes in 
the PCB if you're handy enough to add one.  Very few come with a 
ready-to-use connector, it seems.  I just assumed it was not a JP1 
remote.

On a side note, I'd always suspected that a JP1 remote could be 
programmed to work well with the Hauppauge receiver, but I've never 
heard of anyone who actually tried it (with the Hauppauge IR recevier 
specifically; not merely JP1 in general).  Have you?
