What it does
MC14 introduced a feature called Remote Relay, the ability to use an MCE remote to control more than just the PC. It can control other devices by using a transceiver and cables called emitters. For example, this will let you use the MCE remote to ajust the volume of your amplifier, or turn on the power to your TV, your amp, or set top box. Anything you can do with any other IR remote for your home audio setup can be done with Remote Relay.
J. River offers the Media Center Remote as a hardware package -- more below.
