Review: | At first I was kind of feeling let down with this remote, but this was due to the poor driver that came with it. Driver version 1.1 only allows very basic use. Driver version 1.2 and beyond lets the remote have more power (and you UPGRADE from 1.1 to 1.2). Once I got ver1.2 installed, I was able to control WinAmp 2.9, Windows Media Player 6.4 with plug ins that you can find for free on the internet. I got a free copy of PowerDVD and the remote controls it right out of the box.
For my use, I'm building a MP3 system for my car with a 7" LCD display. With the remote in hand, I can select play list, start up Winamp's AVS, and all kinds of control that I didn't have with my old MP3 system in my car (think mouse pad and small keyboard). With the remote, I will have better control of the system.
IMHO, the drivers for this remote are holding it back, 1.1 was pretty lame, 1.2 is a MUST to get any real use. I'm sure in time an even better driver will be released and set this house on fire! |
