PVR150MCE Remote Doesn't Work As Expected

[A_Brass]

ive had a Hauppauge remote working via a MCE receiver. Had to teach HIP all the codes for the hauppauge but yeah, it does work.

HIP worked huh? I never heard of it before today. I've read at least 3 threads that reference it. I'll have to give it a try. I assume it's kind of like girder.

Since you used HIP I assume you didn't try to extend the existing irremote.ini file to accomodate the codes from the MCE remote. Obviously the receiver will accept the ir codes from the MCE remote.

i couldnt get the hauppauge receiver working in my setup. something to do with multiple hauppauge tuners, found a lot of threads on their support forum and no obvious fix (at the time anyway) but noticed that the mce receiver was blinking at me when i was testing the hauppauge receiver/remote so looked into using that receiver instead.

This page details how to allow hip/MCE receiver to learn remote codes and where to get the 3rd party replacement driver for the MCE receiver.

I'm going to guess this is not the remote in your MCE kit?



I think I saw some remote someplace (this forum maybe) that looked like a combo between the MCE and Hauppauge 45button remotes. Is that what you have?

Nope. Mine has the color buttons on the bottom.

If you've got a digital camera, can you post a picture? I've only ever seen this model without the colour buttons, so I'm curious what the other model looks like.

Sub, I think this mystery remote is the one that somone was talking about in another thread. I wonder how you can add support for it. I guess MCE would have to support it first, right?

Cheers.

When you press these coloured keys, does it add a message to the end of gbpvr.exe.log? It should do. If you're able to let me know which button results in which log message, I should be able to add support for these buttons in the next release.

The remotes with colour buttons are the European remotes (for Fastext).

Umm.. guys.. my PVR 150 was bundled with the Hauppauge 45 button remote.

Just to let you know
