I recently got a cheap ass ($50 after rebate) PVR-150 MCE and it came 
with a USB remote and ir blaster. I'm not sure about the ir blaster, but 
the remote worked with about 2 minutes of fumbling in knoppmyth. I would 
assume this means it would work elsewhere too. I've read the ir blaster 
works as well, but I haven't tested it yet.

(yes I know I'm referencing linux here, but seeing that it works in 
linux means it should (or maybe could?) work in FreeBSD too)
