I searched both this forum and the HTPC forum and no dice, so here goes: Does anyone out there know of a Windows program that will allow PC control of an NEC VT540 projector via the mini DIN 8-pin PC control port?
On page E-40 of the VT540 manual there are specifications for some of the PC control codes, but not all of them. And, although I am a systems analyst/programmer by day and *could* write a control program myself, I really have no desire to reinvent the wheel if someone else has already developed something.
I love my projector but hate that dumb credit-card remote. Since I'm already using my HTPC's keyboard to run things, it'd be convenient to control the projector from there, too.
