Hey Guys,
Is there any way to effectively control music on the PC via IR? What I was thinking about was making a list of song titles on my Pronto 7000 of all the music on my PC and then just touching the song title to select it. I have my 200 disc changer set up like this, and it is nice. I haven't been able to find a reliable way of selecting a specific track on a software music player. I was hoping to get a USB IR receiver and some software player that would run in the background, and allow the IR to still work. Any suggestions?
Thanks, Mark

I dont know about direct song access, but I like this nifty little device: http://www.slimdevices.comcheck under the "remote" tab, they have pre- done pronto programs, and other stuff too. Good Luck !

Could be that something like this: [Link: turtlebeach.com]would fit the bill. (I think this one's discontinued, but there are others like it...)
