Open Source Windows TV Remotes

HDMI-CEC Tray allows to control any Windows application using your current TV remote. (*) http://sites.google.com/site/chir21/home/CEC-Tray (*) Requires the Pulse-Eight USB-CEC adapter. Check if your HDTV supports HDMI-CEC. No more hassle with dedicated mediacenter remote controls and special infrared or Bluetooth receivers for your HTPC. Instead, HDMI-CEC Tray makes use of your HDTV's built-in CEC technology to control your PC. You will be able to control Mediacenter, VLC, MPC-HC, MediaPortal or XBMC as well as Powerpoint, to name a few. With HDMI-CEC Tray, you can navigate your HTPC menus, play and pause music, or fast-forward movies using only the TV remote. It's even possible to make the TV power on and switch to the right HDMI input automatically every time your HTPC starts.

WiPointer Server emulates the real mouse and keyboard functions.

To enjoy this new way of interaction, you only need to install WiPointer on your phone and WiPointer Server on your android TV or PC. No additional configuration is needed! The connection between the phone and android TV is established using WiFi technology or portable hotspot.

Whenever a key is pressed on TV Remote Controller, TSOP1738 decodes it 38KHz burst and then micro-controller decodes this signal coming from the remote. And if signal is decoded properly then Address and Command is displayed on the 16x2 LCD of the development board. If there is some problem in the command then 0xFF is displayed which means data not decoded properly and there is some problem. TSOP1738 is connected to RB0 pin and my board has 8-LED's connected to PORTB of micro-controller, so i can't use LED connected to RB0 pin and can use LED's connected to RB1 to RB7 pin. So if someone presses key-1 on remote LED connected to RB1 pin glows, similarly on pressing key-2 on remote, LED connected to RB2 pin glows and so on, if someone press key-0 on remote, all LED's connected to PORTB will turn off. NOTE: There is some problem with my board LED connected to RB5 that's why it doesn't glow when pressing Key-5 on remote, but if you see the video, data is displayed properly on 16x2 LCD.
