What can I say - it is also. The dongle can under Windows or MAC OS (software is available for free online, is not present) to configure. The run by assistants ("Now press the button you for" OK "want to use ...") and allows to use any x-arbitrary remote control (it must be infrared ... stop). I liked that. So you need no programming skills or have to condescend to the system level to adjust the thing. Afterwards you pull the dongle from, puts it, for example in the RaspberryPI and -. It works. I have the Media Center uses the RaspPI site - runs 1a (yes, there are now two - go both).
Why do I then review the thing only 3 stars? Well ... I liked it. What I did not like is that after 2 days at a time was no more reaction and my new attempt, the dongle under Windows (it works 7 and XP) to reconfigure was succinctly acknowledged with the message: "Please dongle plug" , I have a second PC used to exclude a hardware failure of my computer. I have to manually install the drivers, I have consulted Google. Nothing. The dongle was then withdrawn without difficulty because of the defect.
I know it is difficult, such an assessment objective for all the writing, which assume that they are getting a functioning permanent device. Nevertheless - mine was broken, so I'm just not so lucky. But if the thing works and everything is fine, you can actually only awarded 5 stars.
I hope my assessment helps anyway. Should anyone have the same problem with the dongle have had, please write to the review. As long as I'm the only one I'd bet more on a "Monday device".
