Mute and volume behaviour with Remote

[DrSoftware]

I'm have a Nova-T-500 with remote receiver and am using a Logitech Harmony remote set up to emulate the Hauppauge 43 button remote.

With the following in IRRemote.ini the OSD volume control is displayed but pressing the Up/Down volume buttons does nothing:

VOLUP=+
VOLDOWN=-

With the following in IRRemote.ini the OSD volume control doesn't appear at all but the remote successfully controls the volume, I suspect this is bypassing GB-PVR and some other app is controlling the volume.

VOLUP={app(0xa0000)}
VOLDOWN={app(0x90000)}

The following doesn't do anything at all:

VOLUP={OemPlus}
VOLDOWN={OemMinus}

Has anyone had any joy getting the OSD working with the volume control and mute?

By remote receiver do you mean you are sending your sound through a audio receiver? You want your harmony to oprtate your receiver volume if you do, not pc volume. Have you checked what you have it set to in config under the misc2 tab and how it reacts to your setup? My 2 cents

By receiver I assume you mean the IR receiver that came with your capture card, plugs direct into the NOVA-T using a 3.5mm stereo type plug? I am also experimenting with this as my supplied remote has only limited functionality in GBPVR. Will let you know if I sort it out!

Yes sorry, by receiver I mean the IR receiver that came with the capture card.

However I do have the option of programming the Logitech Harmony remote to adjust the volume on my Marantz Amp/Receiver so I'm not too worried if I can't get it working right, but I though it would be interesting to try.

you can use left and right arrows to alter volume also.. that's internal volume levels..
[very fine stepping]
and still use volup and voldown for coarse volume changes with windows' regular volume keys..

i use send message keys to prevent stealing focus, for that it's 31727 for up and 14225 for down...[when sent to pvrx2 as msg 32775 with those # as wparam]
left\right arrows are the normal arrow keys..

from my old irremote.ini using old 32771:
VOLUP={findwnd(,PVRX2)}{SendMsg(32771,208,0)}
VOLDOWN={findwnd(,PVRX2)}{SendMsg(32771,209,0)}

also, check which volume you're using in config: master/internal/none
[mine's on Master on misc tab]

I got the volume working by using:

VOLUP={findwnd(,PVRX2)}{SendMsg(256,107,0)}
VOLDOWN={findwnd(,PVRX2)}{SendMsg(256,109,0)}

256 = WM_KEYDOWN
107 & 109 = VK_ADD & VK_SUBTRACT

The Mute button seems to work fine with {ctrl}M
