Hi
I have searched, nothing found for "Vista" over the last six months.

***********I am looking for an RF remote for Vista that can also learn to control my amplifier and projector.**********

Any suggestions?

I have looked at the Phillips and Gyration, the latter being a worry as (from experience of my Gyration KB and mouse) it uses a lot of battery power and has poor range.

I have also looked at these big programmable touchscreen jobbies but none seem to explicitly state support for Vista MCE, Which I believe uses unusual protocols.

Thanks

:-)

Anyone? Is Vista a rude word on this forum?

RTI's and URC's can both control WMC. With URC you can use an MSC-400 and link directly into a PC with a USB. With RTI you would need an IR or RS232 interface for the PC.

We have two ends with a common link,
With one we sit, with one we think;
Success depends on what we use, Heads we win, tails we lose.		[ Reply | Quote & Reply
