Is there a way to make the Colossus IR Blaster work natively with MC? Thanks!

I could not find a way. You have to install the Colossus TV software for the "software" to send hardware commands (the IR blaster). Since MC doesn't interface with the Colossus software it just wasn't going to work. I just bought the Media Center Romote (upper right corner) and used that. It works fine to change channels on my DTV box. When I schedule a recording in MC, MC sends an IR blast to my DTV box (if necessary) atthe appropriate time to change the channel.
