I'm having a hard time taking in all the info that is available out there, maybe one of you can help me out a bit.
I'm looking for an IR remote that I can use to control WMPC-HC, Windows MC (if necessary), my TV and my STB.
I know I'll need an IR receiver, I found a thread on here that links to a Dell receiver on ebay for 15 bucks, so I'll probably go that route for this.
Through a google search, I was able to find someone who configured his MCE remote to work with WMPC. Here's my question:
Is it possible for a MCE remote to control a TV and STB, or do I need a more advanced remote for these functions? If the ladder part of that question is true, can something like a Harmony remote be used for WMPC/MCE or am I forever stuck using 2 remotes.
Thanks in advance.
