beta net2hipsend

[pBS]

what cmds did use from cmdline?
also, could you post screenshot of hip setup of ir blast cmds and hip preference screens?

you may have to let net2hipsend thru any firewalls, or anti-viruses...
tho it shouldn't need it, as it only goes to localhost...which is not a security risk..
sorry, my mailbox here got fulll...

pBS, thanks for looking at this. Attaching screenshots of what you asked for. I did not make any openings in firewall or similar since its localhost. Only using windows built in firewall and AVG antivirus. And I have a router for my internet.

hmm, looks like you're using 002 remote suffix and you only have 001 setup in hip...
"net2hipsend 3 500 8080 002" should be "net2hipsend 3 500 8080 001"
and technically if you use port 8080 and 001 suffix you can just use "net2hipsend 3 500"

[note the cmds in irblast screen are for 1= 1.001]
and it should be a period separating them, not a comma..
[1.001 not 1,001 as it should have added the suffix by itself]

you should just add ir cmd and choose #X's from the list, don't write in your own..
when you choose #1 from list, it will add the .001 itself

Ok, this was a mistake by me. I tried several (at least 10 different combinations of paramters and ports and it just happen to end up being 002 in the one I sent to you. Now I know what that parameter stands for This sholud not be the problem.

This looks like it could be something! Been playing with it today but i cannot get the period rather than the comma. I do select # number, but HIP puts a comma there instead. My original setup I did from the wiki (http://gbpvr.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Tips/...e.HIP#toc3). Another thing I can think about is that I am using the MCE blaster and not the Hauppague (dont have one). Maybe your program is only written for that blaster???

What do you think? Shold I start HIP setup from scratch?

the comma thing is strange...what does your HipMCE.ini look like?

yea, i'd clear the keys out and start over...[hit 'clear all' button on main interface]
i'm including some files to put in hip dir, reimport them by hitting 'remote i-o' then 'remote keymap' and open MCE-Remote-new.hkm, then click on Program 1 on main screen and check 'insert pre-defined key commands' and hit 'ok'....
and it should insert and map the keys for you..
HipMCE.ini should be looked at and edited for your irdir path at top...
[not needed if it's in C:\Program Files\HIP\MCEIR ]

you will have to re-learn the irblast codes for your box, but the numbers will already be there..

you are using a regular mce remote right? if so that should do you just right..
i think the comma may be from the localization settings for your windows..
does it show up and work from a browser with the comma?

also including a net2hipsend that has commas instead..you can try that one as-is if it really is defaulting to commas as numerical separator...
oh, and net2hipsend works with any blaster that can be setup in hip...

pBS, problem solved. Went straight to test the net2hipsend with commas and it worked just fine. Thanks for all your help!!!

ahhh, it must be the windows localization settings then..
i remember there were places where the comma is used in stuff like $money where we use a period..

i'll see if i can't make an option just for that...[comma instead of period]
[i didn't know that could vary per locale]

It looks like when you do the following:
go into "Control Panel"
choose "Regional and Language Options"
hit the "Customize" button
change the "Decimal symbol" setting to some other character
hit the "Apply" button

The following change happens in the Registry:
the "sDecimal" String Value in the "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\International" key is changed to the new character

[pBS]

cool, that will enable me to make it auto...[detect comma or period]
not many people will have this prob tho, only certain countries..
just glad it got sorted out...

[agerdin]

pBS, just so you know, since getting the comma version everything is working flawless!!! Am able to enjoy WHS and channel changing at the same time
