I'd like to get some opinions / advice on IR solutions. Here's the scenario:


New to PC Infared solutions. Need some sort of IR blaster controllable by Girder or similar app. Want to control external components (DirecTV, DVD, etc). Don't need multi-zone.


I've looked at the RedRat2, UIRT2, Slink-e, and Ocelot. The RedRat2 looks like what I need, but I couldn't find any info on "current" Girder support. The UIRT2 looks good, but I'm not sure about the work involved. Do the assembled units come completely assembled. I keed reading about soldering emitters and receivers and have no experience with this. Price is an issue with the Slink-e. If I could possibly find a used one, that may be the best solution.


Well, thanks for letting me ramble. Any thoughts, ideas, opinions are welcome.


Thanks,

Paul

My CQC system supports the RedRat. And if you have any serially controllable devices it can handle those even better.
