<div><span>Hi,
<br>
<br>
Does anyone know if the iMon receiver (in an Silverstone LC11M case) can be used with
other remotes. The reason is I *hate* the iMon PAD remote, the mouse
thing is just annoying and hard to use, and often transmits signals
without any touch of the remote.
<br>
<br>I've tried training other remotes using irrecord (which works),
however when using the remote the buttons I press come out wrong / random.
Looking at the lircd.conf created, the trained keys are random, and
lots of the keys come out with the same codes.
<br>
<br>Using premade remote configs from the Lirc website just don't work. In all,
I've tried an LG remote, an xbox 360 media remote (the smaller one), a sky remote, a
DViCO Fusion remote, and an xbox 1 remote. All come out with the same
problem.
<br>
<br>
So, has anyone had any success using other remotes (other than an imon remote) with the iMon IR receiver.
<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance, James<br>
<br>
As a side question, lots of the remotes mention "RC6" standard or something, what is this?</span>

My recommendation is to get a different receiver and save yourself the headaches. I ended up going with one of these IR receivers myself:
