seeking advice: RF remote to run PC apps (Winamp)

Post by velocity »

Can someone recommend an RF remote with receiver that can control PC-based music players such as Winamp or iTunes. I need fairly long range to get from my deck to a pc on the second floor. I don't need a wireless music delivery system as everything is hard wired. I only need basic functionality - play, stop. pause, next track, previous track

Remotes for PC

Check www.x10.com. I know they have some IR types with software designed for such purpose. You can add a standard IR to RF extender to most any IR remote to gain the RF capability you want. (The externders are typically about $50, I think; may be more expensive than you were wanting to spend).
