Many of us like to watch DVD movies on the PC if it is convenient. On my PC I have a Winfast TV card that comes with its own remote as well. The only problem is the remote has limitations in that it only works with the TV card and its software.
Here is a remote that only costs 40 bucks from Streamzap, that can do it all. This includes turning the PC on and off as well. It seems it would be easy to install as the infrared receiver uses a simple USB hook-up.
| Introducing the Streamzap PC Remote: Control Windows Media Player, iTunes, RealOne, Winamp, PowerPoint, MusicMatch Jukebox, and many other multimedia applications (over 110 in all!). Sit back, relax, and enjoy your MP3s! Play, pause, stop, skip tracks, change playlists, or crank up the volume for your favorite song! Control your PC from up to 40 feet away!
Just plug the infrared receiver into your PC, then relax on the couch and let your Streamzap PC Remote do the work for you! The Streamzap PC Remote is perfect for playing MP3s, giving PowerPoint presentations, listening to Internet Radio, watching DVDs & TV, and much more. |
Product Specifications are as follows: USB infrared receiver (cable length: 1.9 meters) 5 buttons for full PC control, 40 foot operating range (line of sight) and 4 configurable macro buttons. The remote uses 2 standard AAA batteries. No matter which program(s) you use, the Streamzap PC Remote will control your PC's master volume, mute and power. The macro buttons on the remote will also still work.
Mmmmm, macros! ;)
