PC IR Control



Apologies if this is a FAQ people, I just feel a bit overloaded with
information!

I want to use my PC to send IR commands to a Freeview Set Top Box to
change channel.... Does anyone have any simple solutions (hardware &
software) that might help me do this simply and cheaply? (sadly I
know little about electronics and nothing about programming!)

FYI the reason I want to do this is to record the audio channels
from Freeview using Digiguide as the trigger...(I happened to have
an old Freeview box lying around)...I can do the triggers in
Digiguide if I can just find some way of getting the channels to
change!!

TIA !
James
