I've got a problem and haven't found a solution that I'm capable of implementing (pretty low bar). I've searched here and the web and I'm not having much success. This is a Vista computer running NPVR 1.5.36 with the latest patches.
I have my harmony remote set to emulate an MCE remote. It is working perfectly except that it launches MCE when I select the NPVR function (Watch a Movie). Once I close MCE, the remote doesn't relaunch MCE until the next time I "start" NPVR. Stopping the Harmony from sending the launch instructions appears to be a bridge too far (honestly there is no list of specific individual actions the remote is taking other than powering it on and setting it to one of the folders).
I've turned off (disabled) the 4 functions in Services but haven't turned off the ehome Startup activity since I need the remote to function: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/02/23...-in-vista/
I assume that setting the power button in the registry per this thread would work but I'm at a loss regarding how to edit the table properly: http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php...MCE+remote
Anybody know how to shut off MCE in Vista without disabling the MCE remote?
