Girder is a tool that allows you to take control of any application installed in Windows using an infrared remote control. Immediately after installation, the program has built-in many profiles supporting the most popular applications available on the market, including Winamp, VLC, Internet Explorer, Power DVD, Windows Media Center or iTunes. However, there is nothing to prevent you from programming your home remote control from TV or radio to operate other programs.

Girder also supports many plugins, which make it easier and more powerful. In addition to supporting the application, Girder is also good at controlling devices such as sound cards, projectors and adapters.
