What is iRed w/o "Lite"?

iRed2 is a very similar software "for all other Macs". You'll need the infrared transceiver module IRTrans (USB or LAN), though this device not only receives IR signals, but can transmit them too!

So you may not only control your Mac by IR but control all your HiFi, Video, or DVD devices from your Mac. Click the iRed logo on the left for details.
