I have the Hauppauge WinTv-HVR 1800 MCE Kit. I am running Windows XP pro, but I bought the MCE kit because I wanted the remote and the IR Blaster. I've got a set-top box for Telus IPTV.
I can watch TV but can only change channels with the set-top remote.
I've tried installing the drivers, but when I try to set up the config it says that "No IR Blaster Hardware Found".
'm thinking now about getting the Hauppauge HVR 1600 to replace my HVR 1800.
My hope is that, because me OS is only Windows XP pro, and not MCE, this card with IR blaster will work.
Does anyone see any reason why this won't work. Does anyone see any drawbacks to the HVR 1600 from the 1800.
I've tried HIP and IR Server Suite, and I just can't get them to work.
Do we think the BlastConfig will work for Telus TV here in Vancouver?
I'm using the Antec Fusion v2 case with ther built in VFD and IR reciever. However, I need to blast to my set top box. Do we think the built in IR reciever is going to cause problems as well?
