spanakorizo Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 i don't have iphone,ipod,apple remote control ... i don't have an Apple compatible IR Reciever, i have an old reciever from Pinnacle's PCI PCTV Pro tuner the tuner doesn't work ..i guess the same goes for the reciever+remote control this is the remote control : HERE it's not problem for me to buy new remote control/reciever if this doesnt work in XP i do everything with remote control+UICE ..everything ,i'm very used to it now i saw some videos about this remote buddy application and i think that maybe is as strong as UICE/lirc for windows so tell me what to buy.. Also if there is a tuner's remote control that the reciever works with remote buddy it would be better cause pinnacle's doesnt work in MAC so i need to buy a new one ,no problem cause it's old and crappy so i need: TUNER+REMOTE CONTROL THAT WORKS WITH REMOTE BUDDY i saw at their site that any remote control+reciever that use the Microsoft® / Philips®OVU400301/00 (eHome 2005) OVU4003 standard will work any suggestions?

ontoid Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Hi, easiest way is to buy Microsoft e-home Ir transceiver and apple remote. I've got RemoteBuddy with Microsoft e-home reciever and original apple's remote and it works very well. The MS remote that shipped with reciever does't work on AppleOS (Tiger/Leo) and RemoteBuddy. Also i've tried bunch of remotes (mainly from some strange manufacturers) but none seems to work . here's dump from system profiler eHome Infrared Transceiver: Version: 0.00 Bus Power (mA): 500 Speed: Up to 12 Mb/sec Manufacturer: Philips Product ID: 0x0815 Serial Number: PH00Ffsc Vendor ID: 0x0471 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanakorizo Posted April 10, 2008 Author Share Posted April 10, 2008 ontoid thankz for your reply i need your opinions for 2 products: 1: Keyspan RF Remote+ir reciever :DETAILS 2: Microsoft A9O-00007 WinXP Media Center Infrared Remote Control : DETAILS (ontoid:remote control doesn't work??) both are compatible with remote buddy many ppl suggest keyspan ..but it has only 9 buttons ,isn't that a problem? apple remote control has also not enough buttons ,will i be able to assign a lot of actions? i'll need to control almost everything with remote buddy (navigate throught folders and select files,asjust volume/preferences,turn off screen, start a movie+adjust subtitles sync if the player has ability,etc etc) in XP with my crappy remote control+UICE+BSplayer i can adsjust font size,sync subs,+/- brightness,change aspect ratio etc etc) so what do you suggest me to buy and why? (the price is almost the same..) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leoopardoo Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 ...any clues where to get SN or keygen for remote buddy v10.8 ? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Boy SB Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 I am personally using a sony ps 3 BD remote control and a bluetooth receiver. I got them cheap. Next problem is that Remote Buddy is free for only 30 days. If somebody wants to crack the program just pm me, I've got something interesting.
