HIPSend.exe not working with GB-PVR v1.2.13

[billss]

Hi,
I am working with PVR-150MCE kit, and yes it came with MCE2005 Remote v2(variation).
The situation is:
1. I successfully installed the latest GB-PVR(v1.2.13) and have been happily enjoyed my Digital Cable through a STB-to-S/Video external tuner connection.
2. I can "HIPSend.exe 46 600 3 2" to change the channel of STB to 46, for example.
3. I am opting .exe Changer plugin, selecting "HIPSend.exe", and using parameters, '{channel} 600 3 2'(without quotes) because I am connecting it to IR port2.

BUT....
When I change the channel with my remote in Live TV or select a channel from Guide, it says the channel has been changed, but it's lying! It just shows me the same channel, and I have to use STB's remote or manually type "HIPsend.exe somechannel 600 3 2" to change it.

What's wrong with .exe channel change plugin and GB-PVR 1.2.13?
It seems that it simply doesn't invoke .exe executables when needed.

Please give your 2 cents. Thanks!

I'm pretty sure HIP uses the clipboard to transfer data to their other components. The recording service runs in a different desktop session, so the clipboard doesnt work in this scenario. Try going into Start -> Control Panel -> Admin Tools -> Services, and view the properties of GBPVR Recording Service, and enable the 'allow service to interact with desktop setting.

hi sub,
It worked perfectly, and I am so dumb not to try it before asking. :o
I saw similar comments here and there for other PVR programs, but I've no idea to give it a shot.
Thank you!
