GBPVR supports full use of remote controls. I originally used it with the PC monitor and running it on the PC with the remote control that came with the PVR (Hauppauge remote).

Although after that, I bought a Media MVP ( http://www.hauppauge.co.uk/pages/pro..._mediamvp.html ) of which is amazing! Better still, GBPVR works wonders with it. GBPVR runs through it. I can watch all my recordings I have made previously, watch videos that are stored on my PC and even watch Live TV through it with the added benefits (tv guide, pausing live tv, fast forward/rewing etc.). This way, the PC can still be used as normal, and I get the videos and TV on the TV.

And the Media MVP is fully controllable by remote control too (it comes with it).

I suggest you take a look at GBPVR in full ( http://www.gbpvr.com/screenshots.htm ) or even try it out. It works with hauppauge cards well. Anything you can do on it you can pretty much do with the MVP linkup.

I hope this helps answer - I've been very impressed with it and cant imagine how I went without. The PC automatically records all the programs I want and select, changes the channel automatically when it does it, then I can watch them or Live TV on my TV through GBPVR.
