I use it with winlirc (open source) and digits.exe (public domain?). Basically, GBPVR sends the info to digits.exe, which telnets to winlirc, which sends the signal via the serial port to your STB.
This thread really saved me on the whole setup.....

The last page has a great summary on how to configure and get it working.
Also, the current compiled version of winlirc doesn't have 'transmit.exe' which you'll need. I downloaded the previous version and it has it in there.
Another gotcha for me was that I needed to use "DTD" in winlirc for the transmission settings - not sure if that was because of my receivers or what.
Anyway it I got it in about 3 days and it was $3 shipping. You may want to spring for the "clear" one otherwise you never know if it's transmitting. (cuts down on the frustration if something doesn't work - at least you know it's sending something.)
