Tips For Shopping Htpc Remote Control

1.The software should be supportive

The remote control of dedicated system is developed for the MCE system, thus can be seamlessly connected to the bottom of the system with no software compatibility issues. While for the remote control of open systems, its hard to work. Requiring specialized drivers and software supports, its very important of the software matched with remote control. The consumers should choose products of well-known brands as much as possible to get better driver and credible after-sales support for controlling software.

2.Pay attention to the button layout and hand feeling

While purchasing the HTPC remote control, firstly, look at the number of its buttons. If the number is too small, its normal use must be affected. The basic remote control buttons include Play, Pause, Fast Forward, Fast Rewind, Volume Control, Channel Switching, Shutdown, Close/Open the display, Switch of the windows, Mouse simulation Control and so on. Secondly, watch out the layout of the button, whether consistent with your own habits. For example, I often use the HTPC to connect with an amplifier for playing music. Therefore, I wish enough buttons with the function of controlling the audio portion. Lastly, press the button of the remote control to feel whether the feel is comfortable. A good one should have the same hand feel of its buttons and a good sense of damping, without any defects of the surface print or pungent smell of its shell.

3.Different types of the remote control

Thanks to the mature technology and low cost, the remote control with infrared covers 99% of the market. However, it has a fatal disadvantage, that is, there cant be any blocks between the receiver and transmitter while the user controlling. At present, the remote control of 2.4GHz wireless technology starts to enter the market, which is open to control, requiring no blocks in the effective distance.

In the aspect of controlling distance, the remote control of infrared and 2.4GHz are both effective in about 10 meters. Theres no problem in operation HTPC in the living room.
