Message: <blockquote data-quote="Smac" data-source="post: 40173" data-attributes="member: 18687">[My apologies for almost duplicating: I sent it to a wrong MP forum]I've bought a PVR150MCE (UK version) card which comes with a IR receiver, 1 blaster and the remote itself. The receiver seems to be made by SMK and has 2 ir-blaster ports. The remote works natively with MP like a charm.[By the way, the picture of the European remote in the config wizard has only 2 "My" buttons while mine has four: MyTV MyMusic, MyPictures and MyVideos, all of them work]However IR Blaster doesn't work. I am using very recent MP version (mediaportal-cvs-02-28-2006--01-10) and I have installed myblaster pluging.  It seems to me that the plugin cannot recognize the receiver. The Learn and Test Features are grayed out and blaster Blaster.exe /dump (v 0.1.2.20463) gives the following:[code]28/02/2006 18:27:40 Device.FindDevice: \\?\usb#vid_0609&pid_031d#sm002wek#{7951772d-cd50-49b7-b103-2baac494fc57}  [/code]And the log from mcelearn.exe (v 1.0.1912.31578) is: [code] 28/02/2006 19:16:26 FormLearn.FormLearn_Load: Failed to find blaster [/code]I am using recent version (mediaportal-cvs-02-28-2006--01-10) After reading other posts and surfing the source files I believe that the inclusion of device and vendor information is required in both RemoteBlaster.cs and MCEDevices.cs files. Being very optimistic, I tried yesterday to make the compilation on my own. I downloaded VB2005 Express Edition just to discover that I had no idea about compilers or compilations.To the author/s of myblaster plugin (Smirmuff, i believe) or other myblaster experts (e.g. Scoop).Q1: Is this modification necessary?Q2: Could you make this change for the next build of myblaster.Q3: Could this next build be made soon? And finally another one which is almost a question of honor: Is there a brief and simple primer or tutorial that teaches you how to compile a VB project when you have all *.csproj, *.cs and *.sln files?Thanks in advance.Smac</blockquote>
