Hello everyone,

I have a quick question.
Is it possible or will it be possible in the future to use my apple remote with XBMC on my xbox? I have an IR receiver from the xbox remote kit.

Thanks in advance!

Well, find out what Apple uses when sending IR signals

This might be something for the future XBMC Linux port, but for the Xbox it will be useless because of the hardware limitations without a universial infrared-reciever and code to make that work on the Xbox under XBMC (which I very much doubt will ever happen), read these two topic threads for more information on that:
