Does anyone know how to control Windows Media Center with Demopad via IP?
Thanks,

Hi Ray, all,

Other iPad remotes use MCE Controller - http://tig.github.com/mcecontroller/. That seems a well-regarded picec of software. I quote:

"MCE Controller lets you control a Windows HTPC (or any PC) over the network. It runs in the background listening on the network for commands. It then translates those commands into actions such as keystrokes, text input, and the starting of programs. Any remote control, home control system, or application that can send text strings via TCP/IP can use MCE Controller to control a Windows PC."

Please post here and let us know how you get on, as I, for one, will need to connect my MCE to Demopad.

Richard
