Hey guys.

New to this MediaPortal, but it looks good, lots of features and stuff, but got a little issue with my MCE keyboard, can´t get it to work with all the shortcuts like RADIO,PICTURES,TV etc, even though i see some options in configuration of MCE keyboard, I still can´t get them to work.

Please help the n00b ("

Which drivers are you using?

If none; What OS are you using?

Exco · 2007-09-24, 21:51

No drivers really, only the one that came with the remote for the IR thing, using MCE 2005

Spragleknas · 2007-09-24, 21:56

Is it working in MCE?

If not:

Yeah works like a charm in MCE but not in MediaPortal, some keys work though xcept for the shortcut keys.

Did you enable MCE remote in Setup -> Remote ?

Exco · 2007-09-24, 22:34

yeah i did, also when asked in setup within mediaportal.

Nobody knows how to get the xtra keys to work like My Tv, My Music etc ?

I use the MCE Keyboard, though with Windows XP Pro rather than MCE. All the keys work as they should, straight out of the box. I just don't know what to suggest!

If you can't get it to work, try "IR Server Suite", it has a new method of supporting the MCE Keyboard that should work... But it is still beta software, so know that going in.

Cheers,
