I guess my google fu is bad, as I can't find this topic
I just bought a mac mini off ebay, and learn about flirc as solution for remote control
I have a raspberry pi running openelec, and connected to my panasonic plasma TV
I am able to control certain part of xbmc via panasonic TV remote
what I want to do is replica this functionalities with the mac mini/flirc/xbmc
From my understanding, you need to plug flirc into usb port, and then run flirc app on the machine itself
With the mac mini, usb port are all in the back
and as far as I know, all mac mini has a buildin IR receiver in the front(??)
So...
If flirc is plugged into the back of the machine, can flirc still "catch" the IR code that I am pressing on my TV remote when it's in front of the machine?
Thanks!
