I don't need sample code. I need a sample remote. :)

The basic protocol is relative clear to me, but it would be quite useless to try to write a plugin without a remote on my desk to test it out.

If its a separate add-on plugin, I can help test the plugin. Let me know if that would work.

Thanks ...

I don't expect the MouseRemote serial protocol to be much complicated, but it will need some coding and without a sample its quite unlikely possible.

I came across this program. From the documentation, it sounds like it extends the software included by the manufacturer.

Looks like it hasn't ...

Yes, I do have a MouseRemote! I also have the adapters I mentioned in the previous post, if that's any help (for testing).

If I understand what you are saying correctly, the problem is not the remote itself, but how the commands from the RF receiver are sent to Windows via the serial port - is that ...

Thanks for the clarification!

Do you think it would be possible to use the X10-plugin (w/ X10-USB driver) if I used a serial to USB adapter and connected the RF receiver of the mouseRemote to the USB port?

The mouseRemote also comes with a serial to PS/2 adapter and I could also use a PS/2 to USB ...

Can you elaborate on why it wouldn't work?

I guess based on the articles on the wiki, it appeared that the Firefly remote also uses the same X10 protocol since its manufactured by X10 for snapstream. Other than the serial port interface instead of USB, mouseremote seemed similar to the firefly ...

Using Eventghost with X10 remote

Hi,

Is it possible to use this remote with the X10 mouse-remote: http://www.x10.com/products/x10_mk19a.htm .

I would like to use the X10 remote to control GBPVR and have read the "short manual" on the Eventghost wiki as well as the "Controlling your Living Room" article. I understand the Firefly ...
