Some strange remote encoding? Works PnP with Lirc - sets up in like 5mins. It cannot be too strange and the code for Lirc is open sourced... Transform Your Classic Xbox into a Killer Media Center ::
Using Windows built-in sharing (or Mac OS X's Windows Sharing), you can use XBMC's SMB (Samba) support to play videos that you record with your PC's capture

Remote Buddy (commerical app) can use the MCE remote USB thing (with an Apple Remote) but not the actual remote itself as it uses some strange remote encoding according the the RB author.

9 postsLocation: Sydney. XBMC on OSX is not bad. Very impressive. I use my xbmc in front of the TV and have never had the need to control it from another room.

Currently its not possible to use the MCE remote itself on the Mac unless anyone else knows different?
plz someone answer
I haven't seen any confirmation of MCE remote support as of yet, use the apple remote or read up on the thread about using a generic dvd remote with a keyspan IR receiver.
There is currently no generic infrared-remote support library implemented in XBMC for Mac OS X (like how the LIRC library (http://www.lirc.org) is implemented into XBMC for Linux).
So to get any other infrared remote to work with XBMC for Mac you have to either implement LIRC (http://www.lirc.org) into XBMC for Mac OS X yourself, or code an Event Client for XBMC's new Event Server API. (https://xbmc.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/xbmc/branches/linuxport/XBMC/tools/EventClients/), both will require some programming skills. See:
