You can try Infrared remote control module for Windows. The software enables you to create different scripts for different applications, so you can fix the same buttons to different functions according to what programs are running.

I am confused can anyone stream real media videos from bbc news or sport website successfully? i hope i can watch news clips or the odd sports coverage eg australian open tennis, but when i open the stream links in real player, I can only hear sound but no picture is seen.
