Not to plug my own site, but I wrote up a tutorial for adding original xbox controller ports to the front of a pc case.
Puts the dvd kit dongle right where it should be on the case.

Just a fyi some of EventClients should work under windows, although the bluetooth ones doesn´t work with bluesoelil. Might be worth checking out. Although they arent that much tested either :S

Anyone have a XBMC Plugin for any of the AIT Remote Wonder RF Remotes? These things are old but awesome.. Would be really nice to be able to use it.

First off as this is my first post I'd like to thank all the XBMC developers for their hard work on the ultimate media player !!!

Did a google search and came across this http://www.redcl0ud.com/xbcd_rc.html

Justs requires a simple soldering mod to add a usb cable to the dongle and for you to run a client program.

You'll need to add a new entry in the client program and map all the remote buttons to the proper keyboard strokes.

Only hitch for me was if you use VK_UP, VK_LEFT, VK_RIGHT, and VK_DOWN fields in the client software maps the UP DOWN LEFT AND RIGHT arrows to numberpad keys so the arrow buttons didn't work in XBMC. (because they would send 8 4 3 2 instead of actual cursor strokes) So I remapped those commands in the keymap.xml file to unused letters and adjusted the mapping in the client program and it works great.

Just like to say thanks to Eclin for this and the keymapping help! Took 15 minutes to mod and works great! I've always liked the Xbox 1 Remote and I've been using it with XBMC for so many years I really don't want to switch.

I enabled remote events on XBMC Windows on my MBP and it's not responding to my Apple or Xbox1 remote, reading the info on the page http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=EventServer i'm lost for further info how to test or set this up. Do in need to install something? Do i need to edit and file? How can is test in XBMC if IR command are received?

I have been using the PS3 Bluetooth Remote with XBMC on Vista using EventGhost as the helper application.

In the next couple of days i will fine tune and upload a small tutorial and EventGhost file if anyone wants it.

Sorry to but in here but i found this forum by the referring link in the post. I am the author of Intelliremote which allows you to control any windows application with your MCE, Creative Soundblaster, X10, or USB-UIRT remote. So for moocower yes you can control XBMC with your ATI Remote Wonder remote. You can do just about anything you can think of with a HTPC remote and Intelliremote and it has the concept of profiles so you can have one profile for ITunes and one for XBMC. So Intelliremote will notice when you switch applications and adjust the profile accordingly so you can have different remote functions depending on the application you are using.

Feel free to check it out if you want to get the most out of your HTPC Remote and XBMC.

I've bought a Logitech Harmony 885 today. Which is a universal-all-remotes-replacer.
I'm astonished by it's quality and ease in use.

The adviced price by Logitech is 249,95 Euro. I've bought mine for 79,95 from http://www.ibood.com :p

I had a a Logitech Harmony 525 before (has the same purpose). But the color screen, charching dock, better layout and more sold buttons make the 885 a much nicer remote.

Hi Bram77, which IR receiver do you have?
thanks
