Yeah, I tested all the USB ports, mouse/keyboard can wake from sleep on all of them too.
No option in the EFI to select suspend mode, but I tried "MCE Standby Tool" which let me change sleep state. But still no luck. |

This thread got me intrigued so I bought one of these myself (can't go wrong at $6.75, and I get free Prime shipping from Amazon) and it's great.
I'd be curious to know if there's any way to hack this so that it does more than what it currently does. Here's what I'm getting at. While it controls things like Windows Media Player just great, it doesn't control web based players (like Youtube, etc). I'm guessing there's no way to control them remotely, other than navigating the mouse arrow into place, but I just thought I'd throw it out there. _________________ Rob

It's actually pretty powerful. You get 4 hotkeys that can launch any app you want on the PC, and it has triple tap text entry. If you can control Youtube with a keyboard, then you can control it with this remote. |

I don't think you can control a Youtube movie with the keyboard (unless someone knows different), as far as I know you have to click on the flash player itself. _________________ Rob
