I use an MCE IR transceiver with an Intesat INT422-4 4-in-1 remote. It 
had an MCE remote as one of the 4 device presets (device C).  I think a 
few buttons don't work, but otherwise is fine.
Here is the link on Amazon:

Note that I also found MCE remotes with IR transceiver and those seem to 
work fine.

It would be interesting to know what you end up with and how well it 
works/doesn't work.
