I have a PC based DVR that controls a PTZ. The PC is downstairs in my office. What I would like to do is be able to control the DVR software upstairs with a universal IR remote control.

There is a lot of remote PC controller software available but it appears to be geared more for the home theater/ media center applications.

Anyone used it for this type of application?

Well, the I-View includes a remote control the software, which could eliminate your problem.

I'm not clear on your question. Does your DVR accept IR input from a remote?

No it doesn't accept IR commands (yet). I was just wondering if anyone has used any of the IR remote control software programs that are being used to remote control a PC for home theater to control a PC with a DVR.
