johngooding Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 I am thinking of upgrading to Vista Home Premium to use the Media Centre application to display direct to my 40" LCD TV. Has anyone found a Vista compatible remote and receiver available in Thailand. Cannot find one in Khon Kaen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johngooding Posted May 5, 2008 Author Share Posted May 5, 2008 Thanks for the reply. I want to use the media centre applications in Win Vista, with no keyboard or mouse only the remote control, via the TV screen. I do not need a tuner as all my TV comes via satellite dish, but I would like to feed the sat box output back to Vista on the PC to record via the hard disk. I can buy Vista OK, but not seen a compatible remote control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LivinLOS Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Buy a gyration one from ebay.. The dogs pods and WAAAY better than an IR one.. If you have a supported IR Rx I heard you can use the xbox 360 one.. i like the gyration as its the same layout as the 360 so the GF sees the same button layout on 360 and MCE for the same controls and same interface (using the 360 as a MCE extender).
