Yet Another MCE remote question

[big3b69]

I been searching on ebay for a MCE remote and I am finding many remotes that are Dell, HP emachine, wil these work on my home build system. I have a Harmony 88o, I just need something compatable with nPVR.

Thanks.

search for "mce hauppauge" that way you are guaranteed it will work

just had a quick look on ebay and the HP ones should work also http://www.ebay.com/itm/HP-RC1804911-06-...1e6af8c611
have a few microsoft brand ones that look the same receiver as this
I would stick to main brands (dell hp hauppauge )
i have had a philips one in the past had to modify the ini file for it to work with xp so not perfect (didnt respond as quick for some reason),white round one with bottom cut on angle

right now have hauupauge one(small one but with blasters still)
and a few microsoft ones(bigger square looking ones like the link i posted above)

I have two of these and recommend them:

It has the colored buttons which are not on all MCE remotes, especially the Dell version.

Forgot to mention that I am revoking both hauppauge card and using I avermedia duet card, which is why I was asking about which remote, thanks for all the advice.

I'm not sure about the differences between these and the standard MCE remote, but one of my MVP's came with the early remote that didn't have as many buttons (34 perhaps?) as the newer 45-button version. I bought the new 45-button remote from Hauppauge for $9.95 each: http://store.hauppauge.com/accessories2....uct=remote I'll have to leave it to others to know if this remote is compatible with the Avermedia card.
