Computer as remote control via USB IRDA adapter?

[UncleWai]

As title, I am wondering if there are any programs out there that can allow my USB IRDA adapter to work as a remote control?

maybe housebot or Cinemar....

what are you trying to do or control?

I want to control my integrated amp (volume, switching inputs) via the irda adapter.
