I had this MCE-type remote working with EventGhost and Mediaportal on another PC but I want to use it with my current PC now and can't remember what I had to do to get it working.
Most of the keys do work and are mapped in EG to Mediaportal/Message Plugin, it's just the directional keys I can't sort out as they are detected as Keyboard Down/Up/Left/Right and OK is Keyboard Return. So if I enable the Plugin:Keyboard in EG, it does trap them but also disables those keys from working on my actual keyboard, which is not how it was on the other PC. If I disable the Plugin:Keyboard then they're just not detected at all in EG.
There's four devices that show for the remote, so I've added four Plugin:HID:BTC USB Multimedia Cordless Keyboard.
I've disabled the HID service and the MCE Receiver and Scheduler services. I've also zeroed out the RC6 remote registry entry as below:
So I'm at a loss now and am very frustrated, so would appreciate any help if someone knows what I need to do.
