ok, here's my issue:
I had the Hauppauge WinTV remote. It was horrible, sending extra keys, etc. Needed something better. Also, wanted a "sofa keyboard".
So I ended up buying the Microsoft Remote Keyboard, and a Microsoft Remote Control (mainly for it's IR receiver, plus I'd hope it's a better remote).
So, now with original MCE drivers (needed for the keyboard to work), plus HIP for the Green button - all works.
My question is, what do you guys do with the "missing" buttons? e.g. the four colored bottom buttons (Red Green Yellow Blue)? Also, no "prev ch"...
I used the Blue a lot for info on TV, and the Yellow I had setup for F7 (screen size). However, on the MCE there are no "free" buttons... I guess I didn't count well enough.
So, any good button-profiles for the MCE remote?
Unfortunatelly, the only MCE remote I could get is:
