using remote to control monitor gigster99 11/19/2008 7:16:01 PM I've read about MCE remote control for Windows Media Center. Most monitors can be dimmed. How would I send a signal from the MCE remote control to dim a monitor. Think of it like muting sound. Except in this case I want to reduce the light from the monitor by, say, 50%. Have not purchased a monitor yet, so will look at models that can be remotely dimmed.
