Re: Re: Multi Apple Remotes via eHome Receiver

This posting is older than 6 months and can contain outdated information.

I read somewhere on your site that you can set Remote Buddy up in a
"driver only" mode.

The "Multiple Apple Remotes"-mode is only available for the built-in
Apple IR receiver.

Would this mode allow multiple Apple remotes to pass though to the OS?

The IDs of Apple Remote button presses received through a built-in
Apple IR receiver will also be forwarded beginning with the upcoming
version 1.11.4.

Is there any other hardware that you know of that would work with
multiple apple remotes and is IR?

At the time of writing: no.

Or does Remote Buddy only work with multiple remotes using the built
in IR?

Simply put: yes.

Complete answer:
It's not necessarily limited to one remote, but at the time of writing
it can't differentiate them yet for other receivers than the built-in
Apple IR receiver.

Best regards,
Felix Schwarz
