The 2874 supports NEC, RC-5, and RC-6/6A. I did the original support (based on the docs provided under NDA) but ironically enough I didn't have an RC6 remote kicking around so I didn't do the support for it. IR receivers for MCE devices are dirt cheap (< $20), and if you're doing a media center then it's likely the PCTV 290e probably isn't in line-of-site for a remote anyway. That said, if you still really want to see it supported I can probably find a couple of hours to do it (or walk Mauro through the register differences if he cares to). Devin -- Devin J.
