Controlling Sat / ANother receiver from PC

timhan

Hi, I'm now trying to get my PC to change channels on my technomate and my other receiver box. If I can't have both, then the sat receiver for sure. Or, if needed, I'll get a tv card that can see the freeview and call it good, although I'd prefer a bit more. I'm open to suggestions there. I understand I need an IR Blaster to get the PC to control these devices. My current TV card is a PCTV 310i. Can someone help me to figure out what I need to get this in place. I've not had much luck finding an IR Blaster out there that explains what I need to put this all together. Currently, I'm using Vista Ultimate's Windows Media Center. Thanks for any help!

Have you lost the remotes for these stb's?

No. I want the pc to be able to change the channels to be able to record... pvr type of thing.
