I have 2 questions.
Has anyone ever tried to put in a after market IR receiver on a PC case to turn on/off the PC? Something like Simerec PCS-2. I am interested in trying it. missing remote has great review about it, but wondering is anyone has any personal experience. Its a bit expensive at $40, I remember researching it a while back and there were cheaper alternatives available, but cant any others now. This comes with instructions on how to get it to work with universal remote.
That brings me to my second question -
I have a HTPC case with built in IR, came with a remote, works great! but I don't know how to use a universal remote to power it on. I researched online but couldn't find its "code" or any instruction on how to get it to work universal remote.
The remote I want to use it not harmony, but one that came with my TV, it can power on/off upto 4 devices. Other one that I intend to use is Galaxy Universal Remote. It comes with a list of devices I have to choose from, it does not support generic devices.
