Re: 3rd-party IR remotes

This posting is older than 6 months and can contain outdated information.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

Apple provides a kernel extension (kext) for the IR receiver that 
then generates events in the HID system. Remote Buddy, just liek 
Apple's own rcd.app uses these HID events to receive actions from the 
remote.

So, no, there's no "raw", direct hardware access to the IR receiver 
in Remote Buddy.

Best regards, 
Felix
