IR blaster & rc3 & Foxtel

fwal · 2006-04-07, 12:36

I have seen reports of a new MyBlaster for RC3 but can't find it on the MP site anywhere. There is also mention of a special dat file for Foxtel which I also can not find. I have also tried training HIP for Foxtel but that doesn't work either, (with MCE remote blasters) not even with the cover off the foxtel box and the blaster bud right on the IR receiver. I also (I know, I want everything) need to switch channels on 2 set top boxes but MP doesn't appear to support this as the log shows only 1 set of commands loaded and all commands got to port 1. whether they are for card 1 or card 2.

hi fwal

i use this one with RC3:

[EDIT]: link removed; download from the plugin repository on the homepage now.

see also this thread:

http://forum.team-mediaportal.com/vi...?p=83928#83928

Is the Foxtel a Pace420? I have tried with this .dat-file, but it never worked. I had no problem configuring it my self. I can only make it work, if i configure "blaster" outside mediaportal setup. See thread above.

In the "learning program" for "blaster", it is posibility to set up 2 boxes, but i never tried this.

Regards baek

Ooops, I'm zipping the relevant files up and will send them to dman for inclusion on the homepage's download area.
