bucky002 Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 Is it possible to make a script that can control your tv from the computer? Is it even possible to do it at all with software and stuff? Thanks.

PsaltyDS Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 Is it possible to make a script that can control your tv from the computer?Is it even possible to do it at all with software and stuff?Thanks.There are IR Blaster devices that connect to your serial port and can be programmed to operate various audio/video components.
