Hi,
if someone is still looking for a way to control MP via remote (Technisat TS35, SS2 official remote control), I've updated a gml file I've found around and it is working perfectly (together with Winlirc).
Which is the best way to share it?

Unfortunately DLR does not have the complete set of images. When you get them from weather.com, all pictures are the same, only the graphics change, which causes a really nice effect. Give it a try! ;-)

It works well but now you got me too excited. Connecting the serial to WOL pins makes sense. Wasn't thinking of this before. Thank you very much.

I now can switch with the FUNC-Key between navigation (left-right-up-down) and volume & channel control.

1. MPGAUDIO.AX is only needed if you want to use the generic DVD codecs to play back the AC3 stream in an AVI file. You have FFDShow installed and therefore this will handle it for you.
2. Post a detailed question in the General Support forum

I have a gyration mouse and keyboard. These are wireless (radio) and have really good range (I have a large lounge and 50" Axium display) over 30 feet. The keyboard is small and the mouse can be used on the bench like a normal mouse or in the 'air' like a wand.

A big old warning here. It sucks. Playing back xvid files with advanced features (qpel. gmc etc) causes major artifacting and crashes. To get rid of this nuisance while keeping the pristine dvd codecs, simple open a command prompt window and do the following.
cd \program files\intervideo\dvd6
regsvr32 /u mp4vdec.ax

MP has support for reading those tags by default (I think it is actually the tagreader you found, but it is now integrated in MP). So you you should not add extra things. If you are having problems with reading those tags post a message in the support area of the forums.

The Hauppauge IR is well supported by mediaportal by using a extendet irremote.ini file. you can find it in tips & tricks or the wickipages ready for download. Unless you want to use girder for some other reason.
