Hi.

I've a cyberlink remote control, that's works fine on PowerCinema 5.
Under Mediaportal 0.2.3.0.rc3 works under a HID Generic mode, and all keys works fine except Teletext, Red, Green, Yellow, Blue, LiveTV, Radio and LastCH.

These keys don't send a numeric code (i use the KeyBoard Input and Message Plugins to sniffer the code).
The keys Channel Up and Channel Down don't send any code, but works fine.

Is it possible to operate these keys?

Thanks in advance

I try this option, but evenghost no response.

I've a Chicony USB Wireless HID receiver, but i don't know how assign a button to a action.
I don't know if the remote is working on evenghost, because the pluging HID no has error when start, and the programs no response on any boton pressed.

I look the official page of eventghost, but i don't find any information.

Can help me?

    Well I described how to deal with the basics of eventghost. You won't find an "easier" description on their homepage. When you follow my description step by step, where exactly do you get stuck ?

    I try with the keyboard (is wireless too), and work fine onto eventghost's HID Generic mode.
    The multimedia keys (play, stop, rewind...) return codes to evenghost.
    But the keybpard keys MyTV, MyMusic, My Pictures and MyVideos don't send any code.

    The remote control never send codes.
    When push a numeric button, or direcction button, send a keyboard code, not a remote control code.

    I execute the PCMService.exe programs (is part of PowerCinema), and the remote control works fine under PowerCinema, but don't send code to eventghost.

    I try evenghost with and witout PCMService.exe running and never work under eventghost.
    I'm afraid that the remote control isn't supported on eventghost.

    I also have some buttons which never show in eventghost even though they work inside MediaPortal. My numeric buttons are such but why would one want to remap numeric keys anyways (so I don't care about this). "MyTV", "MyMusic"... however are shown in EventGhost in my case.

    Have you added every single HID device to EventGhost ?

    I've added all HID devices, and now the keys from keyboard MyTV, MyPictures, MyVideos and MyMusic works fine (with the last HID control of 5), but don't works the buttons on remote control.

    I use the last version of EventGhost (0.3.6. build 1149 from 10/20/07), and the computer is a Inves iCenter 1010 (clone of FIC Spectra or Elonex Artisan), which i bought in out stock.

    Any suggestions?

    Yeah, you had to adapt my description since I use another remote control than you ;)

    Well you made at least some progress :). So please tell me whether your remote is hooked up via IR (InfraRed) or RF (RadioFrequency). If it is connected via IR you should probably add a RemoteControl plugin. Have a look at the plugins section for this (where you added the HID devices) inside EventGhost. I am sure that you find your way with just playing around with this program a little ;)

    The IR receiver are Infarred.

    It's works perfectly, but the "special" buttons don't sen't any code, although when i push a "special" button, it load perfectly the part of cyberlink powercinema required.
    I used a lot of programs to sniffer the code when i push any "special" button (IR Server, HIP, AutoHotKey, EventGhost...), but no one detect any code to use in a mapping of key's onto a plugin of keyboard remote control (i use MyKeys and KeyBoard Input).
    Buttons such as Record, Play, Rew, Pause or Fwd dont' send any code, but woks fine on MediaPortal :confused:

    In plugin section i don't find any more plugin, except a plugin for remote controls such as Asus, Leadtek, Avermedia.. and these don't work with cyberlink remote.

    Another plugin which i forget to use?

    Thanks.
