I have this remote and have had a lot of luck programming it to work with all of my other devices. I agree that the button layout is a little awkward, but overall I'm happy with it.
I haven't had much luck setting it up with myth though. I tried installing it like the ATI remote but I was never able to make it work. I searched all the LIRC and Myth archives, but never found anything that was much help. I gave up on it for now, but would really like to make it work in the future. >-----Original Message----- >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Zole >Sent: Thursday, April 14, 2005 11:58 PM >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Discussion about mythtv >Subject: Re: [mythtv-users] RF remote > > >Just got the Niveus PC Remote, which seems to be similar to the ATI Remote Wonder and even uses the lirc_atiusb >module.
