Ugly But Serviceable for XBMC on Ubuntu 10.10

 

Ugly But Serviceable for XBMC on Ubuntu 10.10

I converted an old Pentium 4 machine in my basement into an HTPC by running XBMC on Ubuntu 10.10. This was essentially a recycling project (the old machine wasn't being used for anything), so I wanted the cheapest possible USB IR remote. This was it. ...

Don't waste your time and money on this!

I bought this remote in order to properly manage my Windows 7 HTPC. I had a remote with my Hauppauge tuner card but it that was not able to put the computer to sleep and wake it up from sleep. I also wanted to be able to use it with my Logitech Harmony...

OK Remote - Not working with Harmony 550

This remote works OK, the range is not as advertised. I bought this mainly for the IR receiver to use with my Harmony 550. This does not work with the Harmony. I have tried is as the Chinavision remote, but no luck. I have to search the internet to see...

Works with Linux and IR can be used with Harmony 300

Good remote, kind of short range

THe remote is not bad, for the price its OK. The range sometimes feels a bit short. Would be nice if the up, down, left, right keys were easier to identify in the dark as the control does not glow and those are they keys I use mostly for Boxee and Hulu

Remote= Good Wireless Mouse

This remote was cheap and easy to use. However, it didn't work for all I needed. The settings on the remote didn't work for what they were suppose to be for. The volume buttons did not work and some other features did not work well. The information...

Can't Beat the Price

Okay, so if you're doing a presentation in front of 1,000 people, you might want to invest in a higher-end remote, but if you're like me and just needed a way to work your way through a DVD menu without getting out of bed, this is the deal! Actually,...

Works with Harmony 610

I got this mainly for the IR Receiver because others here have said that they got it working correctly with their harmony remotes. After setting up the receiver as the Chinavision item that was said in a previous review, and learning commands as Raw, I...

Remote control design could be better

 

Remote control design could be better

I bought it primarily to control Windows Media Center while watching streaming movies and TV shows. Unfortunately, the main buttons I need for that purpose (play, pause, and arrow keys) do not stand out from all the other buttons. If you've ever used a...
