That's actually what I'm doing because I had an ATI Remote Wonder lying 
around, but it's not necessary:

The PVR-250 provides a fully functional IR remote control for those not 
wanting to delve into electronics construction, and the long wire on the 
IR receiver can be routed through a wall allowing you to place the 
system in another room.
