A few weeks ago i bought a FireDtv with the aim to use it in MP. Everything is working fantastic except the remote.
I'm not able to get it to work in MP.
I have :
- copied the FireSatApi.dll to the mp-root folder
- killed the rc-app
- activated support for the fireDtv remote in MP (can't select anything under receiver in the pulldown menü [remote->FireDtv...])

What is wrong ? I have tried the cd driver and upgraded to the "web" driver but that didn't help. Is my dll version to "new" ?

Log :

FireDTVRemote: Trying to enable FireDTV remote, but failed to find dll with error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.


Has anyone got an older version of the driver ? Since my dtv is only 2 weeks old, the driver on the cd is pretty up2date. Maybe the older dll (if there is one) might help.


Thanks Joe


Edit : Sorry, i mixed up the mp & tv server forum ...

FIRE DTV allways worked with me, now i update to the latest Mediaportal and i cant seem to get it to work anymore.
The version of october 2007 still worked.
Think i go back until its fixed :/

I found a way to get it working again.

I replaced the file 'RemotePlugins.DLL' (in the main media portal folder) with an old version and it worked again.
The latest version doesnt show any receiver, old versions do.

I used the version from around october 2007.

Hope it will help for you, if you cant find the file, pm me your email, i will mail it to you.
