Quote: I want to get a remote for my computer, but I need to know if PowerDVD 15 has support for remote control. Physical remote, mind you, not the app. Tried that, can't find my computer...

PowerDVD uses your SMART DEVICE as a remote. Did you try enabling that and installing the app? .

As I said, I already tried the app. It couldn't find my PC, even though I had the 4 digit pairing code displayed in PowerDVD. Before you ask, yes, both my smartphone and PC are on the same Wi-Fi network. Wrote a bit about the issue on the Play Store, too. So, will it support a physical Bluetooth enabled remote control device? Even through key mapping? "Good judgement comes from experience. And a lot of that comes from bad judgement." --Will Rogers

Yes, there is support for IR media remote control.

Not trying to be rude, but, does anyone even read someone's posts? Bluetooth. Not IR. "Good judgement comes from experience. And a lot of that comes from bad judgement." --Will Rogers

Not trying to be rude, but have you read anywhere about PowerDVD supporting Bluetooth?

Oh, forget it. I'll find out myself. "Good judgement comes from experience. And a lot of that comes from bad judgement." --Will Rogers

I want to apologize for behavior...I don't know what my deal was yesterday. I'm not usually that irritable. But, I'll be receiving a PS3 bluray remote control today, and I'll let you guys know what I find out. "Good judgement comes from experience.

Good luck, but I don't expect that to work.

I expect it to need one other piece of software, but from the tutorials I've read, it should work; the concept is that the remote essentially works as a specialized keyboard. It's the key mapping I was talking about before. "Good judgement comes from experience. And a lot of that comes from bad judgement." --Will Rogers

Well, it does work. It also controls my TV, so, it's the best of both worlds! I can now use a remote to control PowerDVD. For anyone who DOES want to do this without having an IR remote, the PS3 Blu-Ray/Media remote is a good option. All it requires extra is a Bluetooth dongle, and a piece of keymapping software called PS3BluMote. I won't post a link here, 'caue I don't know if external links are allowed, but a quick Google search should turn it up. "Good judgement comes from experience.

Well I guess the answer to your two questions in post 3 are No and YES.
