Internal CIR header - what do I do with these?

[alpenn]

The motherboard I have is an Intel DP35DP. As it's going to be retired to the lounge to become my HTPC next year I'd like to equip it with a Vista Media Centre compatible remote at some stage.

The board has internal CIR emitter and receiver connectors. What I meant to do with these? Are there front-panel ir receivers available that connect via the internal connectors? All the remotes I have seen either use an external or internal usb receiver.

Here's the link that Intel promotes http://easy-cir.com/ but after visiting that I feel none the wiser. Can someone please enlighten me on how I use these internal connectors with a Vista MCE remote.

Thanks in advance.

Inteset sells an Intel CIR module and remote that works with this header. Gets you S5 capability (power up from off state).

This might be the only company that sells this type.
