Control xbmc w/ tv remote? - JoeBlow42069 - 2012-11-05

Is using Event Ghost the best solution for controlling xbmc w/ a tv remote? Is there a better solution? Does anyone have experience with this that could point me in the right direction?

There are literally dozens of threads on this subject. I suggest does a search and reading to your hearts content

Event ghost is the best tool for controlling xbmc using tv remote. You will need an IR receiver also. The HP MCE receiver works fine with eventghost. I have tried remotes of my Panasonic TV, Sherwood BDP, HD STB and they all work nicely with xbmc.

Another option is Flirc (wiki). Haven't tried it myself, but you can search the forums for this term and you'll find a number of threads where actual users have commented on it.
