I had this problem also. The problem is that Windows seems to load a generic driver for the card. You'll need to download the latest one from Hauppauge's website. Uninstall the current driver for the card and install the new driver. The installer doesn't always seem to register the drivers so you might need to open your %temp%...

If that is the case, pressing keys on the keyboard or remote should steal the control from the mouse immediately.

However I can't see any problems on the server side. I'm sorry but this is not really my area of expertise, and I'm not able to test because I don't have I client server setup (I do have...

In the US, EPG info is only available via an antenna, in the vast majority of cases. (Very few cable companies retransmit this info.) This mean you must use one of the other methods in the wiki. I chose mc2xml. The wiki for that also includes a link to mc2xml's site which has more info on setup for MP. The big hassle is getting the...
