Hello folks,
I'm looking to buy an IR 'blaster' to allow GBPVR to change channels on my Telewest box. I think at about £80 RedRat is rather too expensive. USB UIRT at about £43 looks like a better bet, but I wonder if anyone can answer a couple of questions I have about it:
1. Do I need to buy Girder to get it to work with GBPVR?
2. What's the range like? I think I'd need about 5 metres to allow it to transmit across the room to the set top box.
Many thanks
