Can't find a way to close the tray, only eject it. Found a exe-file that could work, but don't know how to run it with one single touch with my mce remote.

    MCE Replacement plugin lets you launch executables from your MCE remote (amongst other things).

    Cheers,

    I use the EXE mapped to the red teletext button on my MCE remote. It works great!
    (I say that 'tongue in cheek' as I wrote the EXE, haha)

    It does do the job though. Funnilly enough, I have noticed that sometimes if MP is not responding, opening and closing the CD tray with the EXE, brings MP back to life!?
    Odd eh?

    cheers,

    Hi,

    I would like to be able to open/close the dvd tray with my remote. I have downloaded the 'CD/DVD Opener & Closer' utility + the 'MCE Replacement Plugin'. The utility works from withing the MCE replacement plugin as a macro but I cannot find a way to map this 'command' or macro to a button.

    Can anyone help me please?
    :D

    Well, I had already recognized your problem, but I still wanted to point out the basic connections once again. Unfortunately, I don't have a fundamentally different solution for you, but with this approach you should achieve your goal. ;) The idea of first setting the current genre colors with the defines is certainly a good one, as...
