[mythtv-users] HTPC cases

[Noel Murphy]

I want to ask a few questions to those that have these cases already.

I actually emailed the SilverStone people themselves, but never got a  
response (yeah customer service).

They don't have much of a write up about the remote control on their  
site. Can it be programmed to control other devices as well? Power on  
my TV, Stereo? Change volume on my Stereo, etc?

OR

the IR receiver that it comes with...can it receive signals from  
other remote controls? If the answer above is NO, I'm curious if the  
remote I currently use could be "read" by the receiver that comes  
with these cases.
