[QUOTE="scipher, post: 255404, member: 72464"] [b]Ehome Driver update[/b] I also had a problem when installing the eHome Transceiver Drivers for my remote. I bought a Huappage PVR-150MCE seperatly from the Huappage MCE Remote which does not at all look like the one they show on the site. I am running Windows XP Pro SP2 and even after the install of the Rollup V2 Drivers, I could not get the transceiver to function correctly. What I did notice is that my remote has an RC6 sticker on the back of the battery lid, so very frustrated since I could not find something that works. I downloaded the eHome Rollup Drivers from the media portal site. I don't know exactly where in the forum I found it, then I tried to install the eHome IR Transceiver with those drivers that did not work either....so frustrated and annoyed I when to device manager and found the following bit of information under the properties of the Unknown device which was my IR transceiver I had a look ad the device ID and opened up the irbus.inf folder from the eHome Rollup drivers I found on the forum and low and behold, the device ID of my hauppage mce remote which I found from device manager was this : ([B]USB\VID_1784&PID_0006[/B]) and I did a find through the irbus.inf file and did not find any hits. So what I did was at the bottom of the [B][MicrosoftHw][/B] section in the inf file I added the following line : [B]%USB\VID_045E&PID_006D.DeviceDesc%=IrBus_v2, USB\VID_1784&PID_000[/B] and in the [B][ControlFlags][/B] section I added the following line : [B]ExcludeFromSelect=USB\VID_1784&PID_0006[/B] after doing this I saved the file and updated my currently unknown device pointing to the directory that contained the file I just modified, and voila it installed the drivers in windows and all was good. The remote functioned under windows XP as a fully functioning MCE remote. The reason I think I struggeled so much is that my remote is a newer version of the huappage MCE remote. And since the RC6 protocol is supported in the eHome Rollup Drivers I tried to take a shot in the dark and see if I could get it working...which it luckily did as I would have been willing to go as far as to write my own driver software for the device....so some tinkering saved me lots of grey hair. I hope this helps someone else, and saves them the frustration I experienced. But the remote functions now fully in windows and Team Media Portal and all buttons work I am extremely happy. EDIT : Here are the drivers, for anyone who struggles to understand what to do in the post. [ATTACH]27342[/ATTACH] :D :D :D [/QUOTE]
