Default IR Server Suite + Antec V2 with Imon reciever + MCE Remote

Hi All

The Imon software is driving me nuts. It doesnt work with the tv power button on my MCE remote and a few other buttons are missing. Trying to launch MP is a pain as its from a keyboard shortcut (CTRL+ALT+M) linked in the Imon software to the MCE button. This is great but trying to use the keyboard plugin to get this button combination to go to home screen in MP is frustrating to say the least.

Has anyone successfully got the IR server suite working with this reciever? I tried but got an error saying that IR server suite was not ready to learn codes and after playing around couldnt sort it.

The iMon software is just too limited with multiple software's. If the windows command menu worked on every app apart from the selected app in the program menu it would be so much more useable. If it wouldnt come up with key conflicts between program and window menus it would be great. I did get things working for the majority by setting a program up for explorer. This enabled me to setup ustom commands for windows and for media portal. The problem - sometimes when I press the MCE key to launch MP it says not defined. Something else has got focus, I do not know what.

I have however got the external display working fantastically thats to cybrdisplay. Fantastic bit of software.

I've read as many other threads on this as I can find and nobody has any info on this. I hope some of my descriptions in this thread will save other people time when playing around with the iMon software.

To get back working I simply changed it in iMon from the windows command (backspace) to the program setup (mediaportal) escape.

Unlike mce mediaportal uses escape to go back rather than backspace.

Ok after some more playing around I downloaded the IR Server Suite 1.4.2

In this version i can add buttons to the program serction of the translator which is ace as I can add MP as another program and go through all the buttons. I've also disabled the collection of IR codes by iMon. However in MP non of the inbuilt MP control works. Not sure why. And when I try to learn IR codes in any of the IR commands sections it still says the server has not been setup to learn. How do I change this?
