RealMagic Remote Control

I have a RealMagic DVD remote control for the hollywood + card and i was wonder if it is possible to get the remote sensor to accept commands from other remotes, or indeed its own, to control other applications particularly winamp and also to use functions like shutdown and standby. I have tried many plugins for winamp but do not work.

I have seen apps on cnets www.download.com that use a TV Tuner remote and turn it into a kind of mouse where you can move around the screen and click etc. Also progrmam buttons to do things like, I expect, Shutdown. Not sure how this would work as shorly the TV tuner app would have to be closed otherwise they would both be fighting over what to do with the signal......

Also, the problem that got me was that it is very model specific and only works with the cards it says it will. Not sure if they have them for DVD remotes/cards but it seems likely, might be worth a try.
