Hi,<br><br>Anyone tried to use a "Microsoft Remote Control and Receiver for MediaCenter PC" with MythTV yet?<br><br>A friend of mine just got a few of these and I must say the hardware looks quite usabble:<br>* USB IR receiver
<br>* two seperate IR senders that plug into the USB receiver<br>* nice IR Remote (48 buttons)<br><br>If that thing is usable in linux for MythTV it would make quite a nice (and affordable - about €60) option.</blockquote>

The remote and receiver work fine. (You need to use either the
"mceusb" or "mceusb2" LIRC driver, depending on which generation of
hardware you got.) There's no support for the IR blaster
functionality.<br>
