JRiver Media Center Remote
JRiver offers the Media Center Remote hardware package shown above. The package includes:
- A high quality Media Center remote. It can control JRiver Media Center without any setup. It also works with Windows Media Center.
- An IR transceiver device that connects to your computer via USB. It has two 1/8 inch jacks for emitters (one emitter is provided). No separate power is required.
- An IR emitter or "blaster" that plugs into the transceiver's 1/8" jacks. You can attach the emitter to the IR detection lense of the equipment you want to control, such as a cable set top box, a receiver, or a TV. The emitter has a peel-off adhesive on one side, but is transparent enough that the usual remote used with the device will still work.
