Wiimote and MSC-400 support

[ChadCapeland]

Has anyone gotten the Wiimote to work as HID for Girder?

Also, is the URC MSC-400 supported by Girder? It looks to be a lot like the Global Cache' but has RF support, but no network support (which is why I would need Girder to work with it).

That is a neat idea Once connected the WIImote might work with the Girder 5.0 transport (HID) plugin. Though that is USB-HID...

According to the WIKI it should be accessible through the USB-HID stack. So it should be fine.

What about the msc-400?

It's not cheap, but it does provide RF reception, which means you don't have to buy that separately.

Oh, and it has voltage and video signal detection, which the GC-100 doesn't have either. So it can sense you manually turning on a DVD player and use that as an trigger to set the TV input to the DVD.

I do not have any experience with that device. Maybe some users out there? Note to get the best response it always is a good idea to stick to one question per thread. You are asking about 2 different devices here, people might totally mis the MSC-400 Q.
