A note to all Antec Fusion 430 LCD users:

Don't update to the new version of iMON (7.4) it breaks the use of this plugin as far as I can tell. I now have a plain black LCD screen. I could re-install the old iMON drivers but then I would have to configure everything all over again.

Then you did something wrong smitty. I just got the display working with iMON 7.4 and MP. The remote isn't working all that great so far but i'm not done tweaking yet.

@Smitty2k1 and all the others having problems with cybrmage plugin and Imon latest drivers,be sure to set the plugin like in the attached screenshot.

@r_a_s_robin: try the attached imon remote settings that chemelli gived us time ago and i'm sure you will have no more trouble with your remote

Thumbs up

It works great with my antec fusion now.
One thing it seems to stop Imon and then the remote does not work any more. I now ticked all restart te imon driver boxes in the setup.
I can see navigation and track info so I can operate simple audio only things while the TV is off

For some reason the power button of the remote does not make it throug, so I can only standby the system via te sleepbutton om my temporay used keyboard

There can be several reasons for the power button not functioning:
  • Verify the power/energy settings in Windows. The power button needs to be set accordingly to trigger standby/hibernate.
  • Check your PowerScheduler settings first to verify that Standby/Hibernate is not prevented.
  • If none of this helps, you may want to check your hardware. My Silverstone LC16-M is supposed to be started/stopped with the iPad. To my great surprise when I looked at the disassembled hardware, the respective connectors on the small board were not wired. I had to solder this myself!

This is a standard Windows behavior and has nothing to do with the hardware. Windows (either Vista or XP) reacts to certain standard key presses whose function is defined in the registry. What you need to check is whether the remote power button works like the Power button of your case, that is switching the PC on from all power states - including off and hibernate!

Once you have verified the energy settings of Vista bring your PC on and stop MP and TV server. Then try to switch if off with the power button on the case to verifgy the function, then do the same thing again using the remote instead. If the remote doesn't switch the PC on and off you are having a hardware problem.

Good luck,
Johannes
