Hi, I was looking for a couple suggestions as to the best way to get my PC to work with my Harmony 676 remote control. I have WindowsXP SP2 but i do not have MCE. My PC is connected to my TV via DVI and right now i use a wireless keyboard and mouse. They work great for general computing but when I'm playing media on my TV/Stereo system I would really prefer just to use my remote instead of having to always have the mouse/keyboard near by.

I'd like to use the basic play, pause, ect media control buttons on my remote and have them interoperate with whatever media player I'm using such as WMP11, iTunes7, WinAmp etc. It would also be great if i could map specific keystrokes (and combinations of key strokes) to either the hard buttons on the remote or soft buttons on the LCD display.

If you could point me to a couple options i'd really appreciate it, i'm willing to do the in depth research but i just don't know where to begin.

Thanks!
J
