    "Multimedia Keys" as you call them should be handled by MP's General HID mapper.

    Yes, but AFAIK MediaPortal currently wont let you map an action to multiple key presses.

    For example, my remote acts as a generc HID device, yet when I press "PLAY" on the remote the key combination CONTROL+SHIFT+P is sent. MP will only see 'p' being pressed - which means that it is not recognized in the application.

    If there is a way to get MP to recognize multiple key presses for an input, I would love to hear how!

    In all honesty, I've been using autohotkey as a work around for my remote for over a year now and it works for my needs.

    No rush at all. Im a very patient man. :D

    desso64: for an easier way to reasign keys, just go into configuration > General > Keys and Sounds

    It's actually ok once you get used to the layout. choose the action you want to change, click on the 'key' field and simply press the key on your keyboard.

    Thanks for explaining. I found a passing reference to this here: https://www.team-mediaportal.com/wiki/display/MediaPortal1/HID%20Profiles which I had overlooked in the past. I would find it logical for a created custom profile to be automatically activated, but until that happens, I will try to create a wiki page for the current...

    Apologies Pablik. My bad. I neglected to run WMI Manager and check Properties as you advised. Sure enough, it produced this error: I tried to run winmgmt /resetrepository, but there were conflicts with running services. So I stopped those services (Malwarebytes & IP Helper), then stopped the winmgmt service. I was then able to run...

    Hi there, since I changed TV and HTPC's CPU, I'm wondering if this guide: Guide could be considered still good today, since it's been almost 13 years since then and it's still referring to a resolution of 1080p? I say this because I have a new Panasonic 4K HDR TV, and with that settings, even if I have an old Gygabyte GPU (bought...
