Hi,
New here.
I have a hp pavilion w2338h lcd monitor using the hdmi port for connection and using the monitor as a lcd tv set.

Question. Can I use a hp mce medis center remote control with this model? I am using Verizon Fios multi room DVR as the broadband digital tv provider. The set dosnt have a ubs port but the DVR set does.

Thanks and I look forward to any helpful replies.

Hi,

 

It does not have a receiver. You can control it from your computer. Here is its specs:

Hi, and thnaks you for your reply.

 

I was hoping a ubs IR remote receiver might plug into the DVR and operate the LED monitor but... thank you anyway. I guess I could get a small mini laptop running win7 and I might be in business... this is all pretty high tech for me.

 

Thanks again,

Hi,

 

What is your DVR, normally they should already have a remote control. Can you plug the monitor DIRECTLY to the DVR to watch videos ? If YES then you ONLY need to control the DVR, not the monitor.

Hi,
Its a Mulitroom DVR supplied by Verizon FIOS. And yes they supplied a remote control but it does not turn onor off the HP Pavilion w2338h LCD monitor, as well as no menu or sound controls. I'm looking for a second remote as the Verizon one does not control all funtions. The DVR is a motorola hd/DVR QIP6416-2

Thanks again.

Hi,

 

Well, in this case, other remote control may not work at all because the DVR accepts only command from its "master".
