Girder is the most powerful and feature rich Windows automation tool available. Girder controls programs like WinAmp and Windows Media Player using
infrared and wireless remote controls so you can sit back and enjoy
your digital library from your couch. In Home Theater PC"s, Girder controls Windows programs (media/DVD
players) and hardware devices (sound cards, X10 and serial devices such
as projectors, and receivers). Girder is the behind the scenes glue
providing full control of your multimedia experience.
Girder works by linking a wide variety of input devices (handheld
remotes, keyboards, etc.) to commands which can control almost any
Windows program or hardware device. With a hand held remote, you can
have complete control over your computer. An extensive library of controls is available for download on the
Girder website. Girder works with many IR receivers including the
USB-UIRT, TIRA, and IRTrans.
