I got tired of making a custom IR Receiver for every case/mobo combo, so I came up with this.
This version is much more portable. The key is the In & Out connectors. This allows for me to move an IR PCB from case to case and only requires the construction of a new cable for input and output. In these images I created a Out connector that will accept the 3/32" jack for the bundled Hauppauge IR Reciever. The PVR-250's are in the backend so the IR modules are usless bacause the backend is in my closet. With this little mod I can now use the Bundled IR Receiver on my MythTV Frontends.
