Amiga Infrared transmitter for serial or par?
« on: May 01, 2012, 05:15:57 AM »
Hi, I just wanted to know if there is some kind of infrared transmitter solution for Amigas that use the serial port. I have seen Infrarexx, but it uses the joyport.
Is there some serial, or even parallel IR transmitter device with some support driver/software?

Thanks

Thank you for your answers.

I am not looking to establish a network connection. All I want is to drive infrared appliances from my DraCo (which I am currently modding/building up), I am talking specifically about stand alone media players.

The problem is that DraCos dont have joyports, Airlink and Infrarexx would have been the perfect choice if they could work from other port other than the joystick one.

Any clue to accomplish this thru a serial or parallel port is apreciated :)

This might be a fun little item.

I keep meaning to add Bluetooth serial internally on my TRS-80 Model 100...


Cool device, now how do I use it with AmigaOS? :)
