AWESOME! - I won, even better it's here! And SO COOL.
I needed it bad! Just installed a new LED 3D HDTV and setting it with media center. The new Amulet works great and really hadn't looked at the documentation yet. (well other than the commands, which I'm still a bit rusty using).
I use it upstairs in my living room, to control my media center on my desktop which is downstairs in another room! I'm waiting for an extension cable to connect a blaster for the IR (Buttons). I do with it was all RF. But the blaster should work with the active extension cord when it arrives.
GREAT FEEL - I easily programmed it to replace my Samsung TV remote. It also did seem to program my satellite box remote, but none of the commands work. I should be able to get around this when I get my PV-DVR which will allow HDTV through media center.
My only issue so far is I have a HUGE media center database of music, HD home movies and videos, photos etc. I'm having some problems sorting and cleaning up my files and eliminating dupes and updating the meda listings. Like I show 2 copies of same movie, but I know there is only one. Wondering if there is a way to delete a database file and have it re-scan from scratch. I have used the "update movies" voice command several times for all my media. Also I need to sort/clean up my music better. One thing bugs me in that I see a Gary Moore album cover for all files that are "Unknown" artist. Probably a media center rather than Amulet issue - but I'd like to eliminate seeing that default cover so often. (any ideas?)
Thanks for the gift! I've been showing and telling everyone about it. And will do more so on the Green button (media center forum I just joined as well).
