Another update, we have had a long time to do this and we pretty much got no where. So we are now using girder to hopefully get this sucker working, we picked up a usb device called Tira that works well. So far we recorded the commands we are gunna use and whipped up a nice GUI that has...

just a little update... I try to send the recorded ir code to the speaker out which goes to the LED emitter. and the tv wouldnt turn on. I then took a digital camera and looked at the LED emitter cause a digital camera picks up the light, and there is no light. So, I am assuming that the...

Yeah, Im looking for a schematic for something like that. I maybe need to use a PIC chip for the usb interface. Maybe send the data (somehow) to the usb bus to be picked up by the pic and sent to the IR emitter. I hooked an IR led to the mic jack on my sound card and I started recording...

wow thanks, i might pick one up to mess with. it seams though that it creates the IR output with hardware. Because of the complexity of IR generation, I was hoping to use software for the IR codes (software as in .WAV recordings).

So I am turning my computer into a universal remote. A project for school I call HDEC. The hardware consists of a home computer with an IR emitter. The software is a computer program that plays WAV files that have the IR signal recorded. So you click on the computer and the TV turns on...

Just want to introduce myself. I lurked around on this site for a little while and decided to join and participate. I am a student at a tech school that is just starting my senior project. It is basically controlling entertainment appliances through a home computer. A more advance...
