Just connect the Reciever to Laptop or Rasperry Pi. For windows 7 it creates two device entry

1.HID generic mouse

2.HID genric Keyboard

Now if remote u can use it as mouse+ keyboard, increase decrease volume..etc

 

Raspberry Pi with XBMC OS

No configuration required , Just Plug and Play. These remotes are recognized as a keyboard/mouse device. Just ensure that “Remote control sends keyboard presses” is enabled under “Input Devices”.
