    "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...

    Hi This is a general question about OnX. I have been using the TvWishList plugin for a while and have recently updated (update install) from MP 1.36 x86 to 1.37 x86 and found there seemed to be no Onx menu in the TV guide. I then configured the onx.presets.xml file like I would normally do with updates or fresh installs, but still...

    Sorry, it's my fault -- I did not notice that you are using MP2. :( MP1 has a separate configuration utility, similar to "TV Server Config". I have tried MP2 only a couple of times, and have never used it seriously. I don't know what MP2 supports with regard to adjusting audio delay, but I do know that all of the adjustments of...

    O Frabjous Joy! That seems to have done the trick. Thank you so much for your help and advice, CyberSimian. I hadn't thought of deleting the various folders, but I'll bear that in mind for any future disasters. Now I can record King & Conqueror on Sunday! Cheers Ralph

    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...
