Help needed with irremote.ini or EventGhost

[obelix998]

Hey all,

I'm a very satisfied user of GB-PVR. I have an HTPC with the Hauppauge 150 card and the 45 button remote. I use a Oneforall remote (Kameleon 8) as a replacement.

Since i've encountered the hdmi handshake problem on my HD television (if i change source on my television and go back to the htpc, i get a no signal error), I downloaded the program HdmiOn (h**p://thydzik.com/tag/hdmion/) and mapped this to a keyboard shortcut. This program works fine. However, I want to map this program to a key on my remote, so i don't have to use the keyboard.

I've looked at EventGhost, which should be able to do the trick. The .xml file in the wiki doesn't work for me (it says GB-PVR not found; i replaced the GB-PVR.exe in the xml file with PVRX2.exe, but to no avail, alas. I'm not enough of a programmer (cough cough) to sort this myself). EG seems a program that has many possibilities and i would love to get it to work.

Then I realised that it should also be possible to add the command for hdmion.exe to the irremote.ini and map it to for instance one of the color buttons. I've been reading thru the available information, but i'm still rather clueless how to do that.

Can anyone help me with either EventGhost or irremote.ini ? I attached my irremote file.

Thanks,
obelix

P.S. Updating the catalyst drivers for my ati card hasn't sorted the hdmi handshake problem, as has been suggested elsewhere on this forum.

You can probably update one of the keys in the [PVRX2] section of your irremote.ini file to do something like

RADIO={run(c:\path\to\hdmion.exe)}

After restarting ir32.exe, you should be able run press the radio key on your remote to do this.

That sorted it. Thanks a bunch!
