Hey i found these on the net and they are cheap USB IRDA devices that are on sale this week, free shipping and i was about to buy one, but just want to make sure these will work with Myth.. as i always have used the onboard ones that come with the PVR250's and 150's ... any ideas on if these will work? Thanks!

k, mabey im more confused then ever now... im reading alot of conflicting reports saying that you can not use a USB ir device, and others saying you can - can someone that knows please give me the Neh or Yea on this?


Thanks!

The remote that comes with the DVICO DVB cards has a usb dongle and it works fine.

hmmmm now the challenge to fine the right usb ir dongle..... those ones are IRdA, which is only good for like 1 meter, so anyone have any suggestions?

StreamZap Remote comes with a USB dongle and you can get it to work with KnoppMyth with a little work.

I think those usb adapters in the link you mentioned are for like syncing with your Palm or such.

I noticed that my streamzap dongle actually receives signals from other remotes I have (you can see the red light come on).

I'm not really sure what you're trying to do, however.
