Hi Krazykroc,
I've had my Austar setup under XPmce and now Vista and the Austar remote works fine. Must be very frustrating as you can see that it works for a few of us so it shows the hardware is compatible.
If you haven't then try upgrading to Vista. Also a long shot but change the batteries for the remote
I have a an svideo connection and only use it for Austar. the normal free to Air channels are handled by my PVR.
