Cant get cheapo remote to work...

[squareeyessam]

Hi all.

I got a cheapo Chinese USB freeview (UK) tuner for £10 off Ebay. Was not expecting much but it works great!

Having trouble using the remote for anything else except the aweful Blaze software.

Have tried HID and a few others but cant seem to map all the keys on the remote.

Have not set up a remote in GB PVR config as I have no idea what I have got. Tried some combinations but nothing seems to work.
The wierd thing is that the number buttons work fine in GB PVR without me even selecting a remote to use in the config.

Anyway, the generic cheapo remote looks just like this one except mine has got 2 more buttons on it...



Anyone know if this thing even has a name and can be supported by any key-press software?

The actual USB receiver is listed as 'e3c' and shows up fine in GB PVR - its just the remote I want to tweak and get working.

Cheers guys!
:-)

You might need to try something like Intelliremote (not free but has a trial) and see if that can detect the signals from the remote. HIP or Girder may work but I'm not as familiar with those as others here.
