[mythtv-users] XBOX IR receiver- Homemade possible?

[James Johnston]

I read that the Microsoft IR receiver has memory in it to hold part of the
player program or something.  Not sure if this is true or not.

Hi Bruce,

I have never heard of it. I know there are generic ones for sale 
somewhere. Also, the MS version supposedly has embedded code in it. Not 
sure what the point of that would be, possibly security related?
