    There we have a problem.
    The patch does fix the MCE Remote support on Windows7, but it completelly breaks support under Windows XP.
    So the patch just shifts the issue from Windows7 to WinXP. :(

    could you rework the patch so that the MCE Remote will still work in other OS'es than Windows 7?

    :D

    just checking compatibilty with XP.

    Won't be compatible with Vista nor XP. But that was already known as current one is not compatible with Windows 7 :p

    We need just to modify the patch to allow different behavior, based on the OS version detected.

    Hmm, sorry. I d'not know that it does not work under WinXP. I not autor this diff. Simply user who make him, offline many time. I wrote him.

    Thats completely ok, as I already stated in the different thread (where I requested for the patch) that we will handle the OS version conflict ourselves.

    Even I'm skilled enough to write few IF statements in the C# to separate few code blocks to be run based on OS version :) But first I need to get a new PSU to be able to start up the dev PC.

    Ok, so perhaps a solution, but not the "right" solution. On the client, within media portal configuration, under TV settings, advanced options, I switched to UNC paths instead of the default RSS, and it's working very well. Sure I had to figure out the paths, but no big deal. Maybe helpful for someone in the future. Thanks for the...

The TV Server parts of MP1 and MP2 start when the system boots, and TV Server runs all of the time, even when it is not recording and live TV is not being viewed.
