 File:Standard remote.jpg MISSING

Standard Media Remote•The standard remote (as opposed to the Universal Media Remote) was only released in limited quantities with Xbox 360 premium packages at launch.

• The difference between the Universal Media Remote and the Standard Remote appears to just be the button additions.
• The remote uses the IR port located on the front of the Xbox 360.
• Some Windows Media Center Edition computers recognize this remote as a normal Media Center remote.

Confirmed Facts

• All Windows Media Center remotes are recognized by the Xbox 360.

The remote control works as a lowbase of the xbox360, so the power on and off still work in Linux, also you can get all the IR codes into linux. So 'if' a Mediacenter is ever ported to Xbox 360 Linux, you could use the official remote. (IR codes and info retrieved by Icekiller, with SMC.C from tmbinc, small remote by kwkward)
