I'm not using it, but I do have one, as I did try to use it at one point

>From what I can gather, it uses RC-6. so it won't work with the Hauppauge
IR sensor (the Hauppauge sensor, unless they changed it in the PVR-150,
uses RC-5).  It might work with the MCE receiver (as it uses RC-6), but I
have no proof of that.  It can, however, be used with a receiver like the
irman that accepts any signal.

Additionally, that remote control doesn't seem to support separate volume
buttons for TV mode and XBox mode, but it does have separate power
buttons.
