Objective: I am trying to use:
Apple Remote - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia with my PC to control foobar.
Why: I like the simplicity of the remote and feel/construction and I don't want a huge remote just for basic music control.
What I've found out thus far: The remote uses "
NEC IR protocol[1] which consists of a differential
PPM encoding on a 1:3
duty cycle 38
kHz 950
nm infrared carrier."
- I'm going to need (1) remote (2) receiver -
USB Internal Infrared (IR) Receiver Only with Cable and Mounting Bracket (3) software ??
STUMPED: Here is where I am having trouble... I am not sure which software I should be using to bind IR signals to commands for Windows 7.
The IR receiver does flash red when the remote is clicked but I tinkered around with EventGhost but failed miserably.
Any advice/tips/solutions will be greatly appreciated.
