AMPS with RS-232
From LinuxMCE
Controlling AV equipment via IR is at best tedious. Controlling devices via a cabled RS-232 connection is much safer. This page is meant as a pooling place for AMPS with RS-232 ports. It does not mean, there is plug and play support for the device, nor is this some kind of endorsement for the listed products.
