need htpc software for usb-uirt

[nakins]

Hello,

I've had the usb-uirt for a while, and I had a free (old) version girder, but I had to swap the pc it was on to replace a pc that crapped out on me. I have a new pc now and thought this would be an easy task to get it set up again. I went to d/l the driver for the usb-uirt and saw that there was new stuff, driver, plugin, firmware. I got it all and installed it all. I went to d/l a girder and now they want 20 bucks for it. I'm not cheap, but after building a new pc and having a lightning stike take out my dsl modem and my router, I'm a little miffed that I have to buy more stuff.

So, If I have to pay for something, I want something good and take care of my needs. Do any of you have a suggestion on htpc software that uses the usb-uirt?

You can find a list of applications that support the USB-UIRT at the bottom of this page:

I of course think that CQC is the best one there, but I'm biased.

nakins,

You may also want to look around and see if you can find the older freeware version of Girder. I believe only the new versions of Girder require purchase...?
