Just got the Niveus PC Remote, which seems to be similar to the ATI Remote Wonder and even uses the lirc_atiusb module. Setting up the USB RF dongle with LIRC was very easy in my case, unlike the Hauppauge remote that came with my capture card which was kind of a pain. The Niveus is also an IR remote for controlling TVs, cable boxes, DVD players, etc. I've got it working with my TV, cable box, and PlayStation 2 (for DVDs), and you're supposed to be able to program individual buttons using the original remote, but I haven't been able to make that work yet.
As a remote, it's OK. The buttons are gummy, and the button layout is kind of ridiculous (all the keys I find useful are tiny and scrunched together towards the bottom of the unit). There's also some lag when using the remote in RF mode, and so far keys aren't auto-repeating in MythTV (probably a config problem). But overall, it's serviceable. --Zole On 4/14/05, Devan Lippman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Can anyone recommend a good RF remote?
