If "full" is selected from the drop-down list "Profile" (instead of the default "classic") without ticking the box "Enable HID keyboard" MP receives 2 events for each keypress, at least in MP 1.26 running under Windows 8.1 Pro x64.

That option doesn't enable or disable functionality. I can guarantee it. Easy to prove too: just disable the option, and you'll find that the remote still works.
It's really unfortunate that we didn't get a snapshot of your settings from before the remote started working. I expect either HID wasn't enabled properly, or media was...

Thanks for explaining. I found a passing reference to this here:

So far I've used Logitech's Harmony hub. This allows you to control all components (including the media portal). I have now contacted the Sofabaton hotline. It should also work here like with the Harmony. Unfortunately, not all of the IR codes are correct. You can also learn commands here. But that doesn't...

Hi all - I upgraded an older MediaPortal 1 install to the 1.23 release. Am using a Microsoft remote (like pictured in the settings) and a Sonos soundbar. On the old MediaPortal version in the MCE remote settings I simply deleted the remote volume up/down mappings so these button presses were ignored by MediaPortal and only controlled...

Just gonna add my 2 cents worth here.
I have the Inteset PC-IRS5-01 IR Receiver and it installed fine, as per their instructions. However I did encounter an issue getting my remote, a HP MCE Media Centre remote (RC6), to work as an expected. This, I eventually figured out, was due to the tuner card I was using at the time having a...

I found in the forum a interesting site EventGhostPlus. There I found a new (I think inofficial) version of eventghostplus (version 1.1.4.1). It was possible to install this new version on MP 1.18.

I am not an audio expert, but I believe that one of the following statements is true (but I don't know which one):

That means you probably have some other software installed/running which is stealing the "focus" (on top position) from MP.
Remote controls usually only work with the program that has the focus. In other words: if MP doesn't have the focus, it's no surprise that the remote control doesn't work.
If I were you I would check your other...

Hallo! Hat schon jemand SimpliTV mit Mediaportal zum laufen bekommen? Was benötigt man dafür? Nur irgend einen DVB-T2-Stick?
That does not make much sense. If repeats are disabled from the XML it should not repeat really.

Hi
Not that I'm aware of. My guess is that the problem is more likely to be something to do with your motherboard - shared resource allocations/limitations etc.
I'd recommend you contact Hauppauge and ask them about the situation, and also read the manual for your motherboard thoroughly to see if there are any limitations related to...

It's possible that our legacy MCE implementation was starving the Media handler by intercepting events at the device level.

So all the code doing the actual work is now gone to that DoStart function but it remains the same as before.
That "IsStray" method is something else entirely, nothing to do with "tray". Stray means "Perdu".
