[QUOTE="quartermain, post: 1089716, member: 147791"] I did get exactly this problem and removing most of the HID devices in device manager did fix it. Now I'm trying to find a setup for this remote which works both in MediaPortal and XBMC. MediaPortal seems trickier. I'm not really clear on the distinction between the MCE command set and the "Multimedia and System Control" set that the remote has. They have some commands in common, ie Play/Pause. MediaPortal responds to Multimedia Play/Pause but not to MCE Play/Pause whereas XBMC responds to both. I've checked the MediaPortal remote configuration and both "use Microsft MCE remote or keyboard" and "use general HID device" are set. Unfortunately only the MCE command set has Record, FastForward and Rewind - the Multimedia set only has Stop and Play/Pause. So I can't get MediaPortal to obey these three commands from the remote. There's one potential out: the remote is modal, it has 8 modes. The default setup has the red button switch to mode 1 and the blue to mode 2. So I could program mode 2 with MediaPortal keyboard controls, ie F5 and F6 for Rewind and FastForward. But that doesn't have quite the same WAF as not having to remember to press a mode button (since there's no indication which mode it's in, you'd always have to do it first time you pick it up).
