Hey. I want to know if there are remote control that are compatible with monitors. Currently, I have two different monitors: Asus PA24Q and Asus VG248QE. What I want to do is control volume and input signal (between DVI and HDMI).

Monitor uses.

Asus PA24Q: Movies and a second display for multi-tasking

Asus VG248QE: My main monitor for gaming. I use it for PC gaming (via DVI) and console gaming (via HDMI splitter. I have more than one console for a one HDMI input).

 

Some games that I play, I don’t really use the sound  (mostly non story game/Nintendo games) and would generally put on a movie as background noise. Some games don’t even have a volume settings (again Nintendo games for the most part) and I want to mute the monitor. Also, would like to easily navigate through the inputs within each monitor.

I get confused to which menu to navigate to for the volume. Plus it's easier to have a remote to do that.  Also, I'm getting a cheap AUX cable to hook up to my monitor and don't want to sources of volume to go through the speaker (one being a movie/music from my PC and the other from my console.
