Hi,
Does anyone have any suggestions for what remote to use for XBMC on Windows 7?
I was thinking I would like a RF remote, but not essential...
Thanks

garvani: I have a harmony one, it is great! However... I recently setup my lg optimus one (android) as a remote for xbmc (its an App in the android market). It is without a doubt the best remote you could ask for! BLOWS the harmony one out of the water.. Dont go out and buy a dedicated remote, just set it up on an android phone/tablet or ipod touch/iphone/ipad.. If you dont have any of these than spend the money you were about too on a remote, on a new phone :)
garvani: The android remote is more than a power button, and fastforward, rewind. It pulls your movie covers, fanart onto your phone/tablet. You can browse your whole movie/tv collection, find out the plot, ratings of said movies.. It is incredible. Heres some screenshots which will give you a rough idea. The ipad remote looks even better..
Also, i fire up my xbmc app and its up and running as soon as the app is, theres no waiting around. Theres no lag at all between you pushing a button on the "remote" and it happening in xbmc either, its instant.
