I can't test it since Friday but i promise tell you if i do work it. - Bobbo - 2010-01-11 This thread was EXTREMELY useful! Thanks guys. I recently got an Acer Revo set up with XBMC Live, and to keep in budget, didnt want to pop for a new remote/IR receiver. I had a spare XBOX DVD remote IR dongle to use, so I wired it to work with the REVO, but was having a hard time trying to figure out how to make it work on the config side. I dug through a lot of info before I found this thread, which got me running in short time, so thanks again. Bobbo - meathane - 2010-03-31 didn't work for me |
