Ir Remote Control Software

has to be software specific, and it seems all software (other than dvdx2) that would benefit from the use of a remote, have remote support already.. Do they not?!

Correct.

I think methadone_pretty is looking for something that can run in the background of any program and allow IR remote fucntionality for those games that don't support it, but that isn't possible.

General rule of thumb: If it isn't already supported in a commercial game, forget it.... The Xbox does not run "windows" as most people know it... programs essentially take over the entire Xbox, with the BIOS providing only a small core of kernel functionality.

Is there even a chance someone can add ir remote functionality to control the rumored X10 controller embedded in the X? Or am I hallucinating?
