[QUOTE="Goldfin, post: 1180897, member: 158120"] I got the IRSS service to restart and was back to a point where the service could learn the remote control channels. However, Media Portal is not learning the channels. I continue to get a Time Out message. Even after I changed the "learn" time to 30 seconds, I'm still not getting Media Portal to learn the channel. After changing the time out of 30 seconds (30,000 ms) I restarted both services and confirm that the it took 30 second before the time out occurred. I spend around an hour trying different numbers 0 - 9, trying different tap speeds (fast - slow), trying different distances from the receiver (1" - 36") and I cannot get the channel to "learn". When I make my attempts, the light on the receiver does indicate that the device is receiving a signal. Also, the remote control does work directly against the Dish Network STB. I even replaced the batteries and cleaned the remote controls emitter with alcohol and a q-tip, but have had no luck. I'm using Windows 10 (64bit) if that means anything. As a test, I used the values from a pre-configured STB for Dish Network to see if that would work. When I change channels on my guide, the IR Blaster does pulse with light indicating that it is sending a signal to the STB. So, in theory that works. I'm just unable to teach Media Portal my channels. Thanks, -Goldfin [/QUOTE]
