Microsoft Media Center Remote Control
From XBMC
| There are several versions of this remote: | ||
|---|---|---|
 Microsoft - Microsoft Logo at bottom of remote and on receiver |
 Microsoft with Teletext - Microsoft Logo at bottom of remote and on receiver, plus Red,Green,Yellow,Blue and a 'teletext' button. |
 Dell - No Logos on remote or receiver and no TV standby or volume learning ability |
All these variants of the MS remote will work out of the box with XBMC Live, though with a standard Linux install you'll need to install and configure Lirc. To get it to work on Windows you need to configure it to simulate key-presses. See Using a Microsoft remote control in Windows for details.
