Solved mousing using MC's IR remote?

[rnewman]

I have some old people who will never use a keyboard/mouse.
BUT
They can use IR remote for their TV/VCR
Win7 MC they can mostly use with MC's IR remote control.

I wish navigate buttons would work on desktop (as a web page)
up/down/left/right jumping from link to link or icon to icon
Select/ok equal to left click
Stop button equal to exit

Plugins?
Drivers?

Not sure which forum section to get help.
Thanks,
Ray

Seems like you possibly can.

They are next door and from Italy.
I am playing around with Tunerfree MC for playing streams from Italy.
BUT
Wanted to try and use remote in desktop to select internet shortcuts without going to MC.
Next I need to remove some selection in MC that are not used.
Thanks again,
Ray

Been playing with remotekcwin7.ahk but many functions do not work.
left/right ir key to left/right cusor movment is ok.
BUT
up/down only causes cusor to jump to top of screen.

Down::
If Mode = 2
MouseMoveWin7(0, 10, 0, "R") ; Move cursor downward
Else
Send {Down}
Return

Calling:

MouseMoveWin7(x, y, speed, relative) ; Win7 replacement for mouse move
{
; Note: Speed is not implemented for this function

if (relative = "R")
{
; MouseGetPos, xpos, ypos
VarSetCapacity(MyStruct, 8, 0)
DllCall("GetCursorPos", UInt, &MyStruct)
xpos := NumGet(MyStruct, 0)
ypos := NumGet(MyStruct, 4)
DllCall("SetCursorPos", int, xpos+x, int, ypos+y)
}
Else
{
DllCall("SetCursorPos", int, x, int, y)
}
}
Return

Anybody see error???
Thanks,
