19 customers mention "Quality"15 positive4 negative

Customers like the quality of the remote control. They say it's a great remote, similar to the official Microsoft Media remote. The remote receiver is top-notch and supports all the RC6 commands.

Customers have mixed opinions about the buttons on the remote control. Some mention that the buttons work mostly as expected, are large enough, and spaced out enough to make it easy to operate. However, others say that two critical buttons became inoperative at the same time, and the rewind and forward buttons don't work. They also say that the remote is cheaply made and the buttons start deteriorating quickly.

works better than expected

Reviewed in the United States on April 15, 2011

This remote gets the job done, but there are a lot of buttons that I don't use, either because I don't need them or because they don't do anything on my system. It is easier to contol Windows Media Center with this remote with the arrow buttons than with a wireless mouse. This device is one of my larger remote controls, and appears to be inexpensively constructed, but it has held up well since I bought it some months ago. The USB IR sensor has a long cord that allows me to place the small IR sensor directly in front of my chair in the cabinet with all my AV components. My cabinet is under my TV and away from my computer, which is off to one side. The IR sensor has an LED that blinks when any IR remote control button is pressed, verifying the operation of any remote control.

Nice remote, good platform support.

Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2015

This replaced my old remote (same model, older) which didn't want to work on the USB3 ports of my new HTPC. That said, it seems to work well with Ubuntu 14.10 even without LIRC, I just needed to setup a file in /etc/rc_keymaps/ for the remote to work with Kodi.

This is probably one of the better remotes for use with an HTPC being windows or otherwise (I'm using Ubuntu 14.10 + Kodi). It has in my opinion one of the best layouts for MCE remotes out there, I've used several.

It would be nice to see the description and title adjusted to include a better detailed description. This remote should work with MCE versions to current windows. It also is a common remote for other home theater pc applications as well. It's well supported in Linux, though you may need to do custom mapping depending on your application. The one this replaced was several years old, but the play button stopped working after less than a year, thankfully the pause works as a play+pause for my use.

Worked great prior to exploding...

I have been using MS Media Center PCs and remotes since 2005 and generally I get 2-3 years out of a remote. They are replaceable and get knocked around, so I expect to have to buy a new on now and then. My old remote made it past the 3 year mark and stared to chew through batteries, so I purchased this unit as a replacement. Whilst I have no beef with: the price I paid, the seller's policies or shipping time, I am unhappy to report that I got less than 6 weeks functionality out of this particular device and now it is dead and I need to buy another one (and it won't be this unit).

My wife was in the living room, watching TV and this remote was in her hand. I heard it pop from three rooms away and my wife screamed and dropped it. I came running and when I got there it was HOT to the touch, smoking and a white liquid was coming out of it. Luckily my wife was not injured, so I picked it up off the carpet and placed it into an empty steel sink, so that no matter what it decided to do next, no one else would get hurt and nothing else would be damaged. I checked it again after 20 minutes and it had cooled off. The liquid on it had solidified into a white, chalky film and when I took out the batteries (the ones that came with it), they tested fine via a multimeter. They also work in the old remote.

I contacted the seller, but as I was past my return / exchange date, there was nothing they could do. They did not offer to get me in touch with the manufacturer and didn't seem offput by the fact that it had self-destructed. MY damaged remote was Model # HA-IR01SV(TSHA-IR01) and Serial # 10001167 for reference.

I hope your works better than mine did!

Media Center needs improvements to make this truly useful

Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2008

Verified Purchase

Pros: The remote works fine. Windows Media Center is pretty convenient for watching videos and movies. I have my computer hooked up to my TV and the interface works well for the TV. The build quality is decent and it looks nice enough.

Cons: Rewind/Forward buttons don't work for most of my videos. Apparently, Media Center can't do that with the most popular video formats i.e. DivX and Xvid. So, the remote loses half it's usefulness for me right there. This isn't exactly a shortcoming of the remote, but still relevant. So, if you're like me and have a ton of DivX/Xvid movies, you might want to keep this in mind.

Excellent Remote for Windows 8

Reviewed in the United States on February 10, 2015

Verified Purchase

Windows 8 recognized this remote immediately upon plugging in the USB receiver. I use JRiver Media Center and the remote functions perfectly with it. The remote feels very comfortable in my hand, and the buttons are large enough and spaced out enough to make it easy to use. I have used a number of remotes for Windows over the years, and this is one of the best.

Like people say,buy it for the IR receiver!.Remote?..eh

Reviewed in the United States on November 20, 2012

Verified Purchase

If you have a HTPC,or are currently "building" one,this IR receiver should be included for sure.My advice is,buy this remote strictly for the IR receiver(fyi the other MCE remote w/ the "mouse pad" IR receiver -will NOT work like this one)then buy the URC WR7 Universal Remote Control to use it with.If you plan on doing 99% of your entertainment needs through your pc,then you can actually tuck away your components,and just have the IR receiver visible for function-which is what I did.Basically, it'll cost around $40 for a pretty quality IR/Universal remote set up like this.(I HIGHLY recommend the URC WR7 btw)Now,there WILL be times that certain things may not respond so well with the remote (such as navigating your home screen,or minimizing programs,right clicking,left clicking,etc.) for that,I have a cheapo little keyboard w/ a touchpad-which uses a SEPARATE IR sensor which is kind of a bummer,I was hoping it'd work with this one too.I have no real opinion on the remote itself,except I CAN say,the first/one day using it,everything seemed to work fine (but WHY is there no "CLOSE" button like the others?!) One other thing I had noticed, was when pressing the Windows button,it would only open WMC when it felt like it,and also, it really DOES feel cheaply made.But like I said,with THIS remotes IR receiver+URC WR7 Universal Remote Control=NICE!! works perfect with XBMC & WMC.
