The cat's out of the bag, thanks to Julie at CE Pro. The full story:

[Link: cepro.com]

Here are some pictures of the new MX-780 and 1200 remotes:



and the MRX-10 Network Controller:



Nice looking remotes. Glad to see they're continuing with the MX-5000-type styling. Unfortunately, no mention of the remote having RF for use with legacy systems, just IR and WiFi for use with the new components.

There's another article on the new stuff here.

it doesnt look like it accepts RF from legacy remotes, so if that is the case, I wouldnt call it a replacement for the MSC400.

Drat - I was hoping so - would be nice to be able to do TCP control from the 980 :-)

add an Aaxeon RS-232/422/485 To Ethernet Device Server to you MSC-400 and you have 1 way TCP control from your RF remotes

Thanks for that. It appears it's more geared for allowing a serial device to be controlled from TCP, but I take it the opposite is possible also.

It can be set up either way, Serial to Network or Network to Serial.

I am using aaxeon to control my windows media center computer over the network.

There is no availbility date set and there is no way of knowing if they can get it out before the New Year. It will all depend on beta testing, bug fixes, etc.

You would think so, but from past experience, that hasn't been the case.

Actually, the longer it's in development, the more chance the equipment will be able to be adapted to legacy installations.
