Hi, I'm a bit confused about this plugin and how it works. I've read through the stickys, but all the posts seem very old and referring to old versions of the software - so I'm not sure if they are still relevant or not.
My MCE remote currently works great in MP, but I just need a little extra functionality. I currently have two of the little IR blasters and want to put them to good use. I'm using MP 1.0.
Here's what I want to do:
1. Have the power button turn on/off my TV instead of put the comptuer to sleep. I've already stopped it from doing the latter - so now I just need to get it to talk to the TV.
2. I plan on purchasing a home audio receiver soon to power a 5.1 setup and would like to control its basic funcionality from the MCE remote as well.
My questions are:
1. There are two separate applications linked is this forum, an MCE replacement plugin and IR server suite. Which of these do I need? Do I need both? Are they compatible with MP 1.0? I downloaded MCE replacement plugin from the plugins section of this website (1.0.3.1) and it's asking me if I have MP .2.2.0 (with SVN) or (without SVN). Obviously these are old versions, plus I have no idea if I should use with SVN or without. I simply downloaded MP 1.0 from the main website download link.
2. It seems the replacement driver is no longer needed, is this still the case? I'm running Vista 32 bit.
Thanks!
