i´d be grateful for any advice.

There is a separate plugin for tve3. But it and this one won't coexist. I'm working on a solution and should have something in the next week or so.

This plugin does let you map the clear and enter buttons too.

Then I plugged it back in after a few seconds, opened the MCE Plugin config, tried to test channel change but it still didn't work.

Any ideas what I could be doing wrong?

I'd try the "None" speed setting to see if that works. You will need to unplug and re-plug in the unit when switching between None and any other speed. But between fast, medium and slow you don't need to unplug and re-plug it.

If that doesn't work then I really don't know what else you could try. Unless your set top box has another way of controlling it, like Serial or USB?

Thanks!

One additional thing though, is it possible to write a macro for toggling the subtitles on and off. Right now, I got it working with two remote buttons; one for On and one for Off. It would be much cleaner to have one button dedicated for both On and Off. I'm not complaining though...very happy that you made this work.

Great job!

You could make it toggle by adding a layer switch command to the end of each macro and then placing them on a different layer in the button mapping form.

Give that a try.

Cheers,
