Hi guys - I realise this is technically a bug report but I am not a developer and unsure if it can qualify as such. Please move it however if it is.

Essentially using milkdrop 2.0c from here ( https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/listen-music-99/how-milkdrop2-works-rc1-39154/?highlight=milkdrop ) makes MP crash if using a hauppauge remote. The program "hcwhelper.exe" crashes on startup and then the IR.exe continually crashes.

I have managed to find where the problem occurs - it's the tickbox "allow other processes to use remote outside of MP" - I need this in order to use the bluray plugin. However disabling this tickbox allows MP to load up fine. So i'm confident this is where the issue lies. Cheers.
