I have a non-genuine MCE remote and about the only buttons that work are up/down/left/right/OK. I still need to use the keyboard to navigate out of fullscreen video as the remote doesn't generate an ESC on any buttons (it generates a backspace when the Back button is pressed).

So I have a couple of questions :

1 - Is EventGhost supposed to work with version MP 1.0.0.0 RC1? It didn't seem to.
2 - The "genuine" MCE remote doesn't look like it's available in Australia. I don't want to go through the hassle of buying one from the UK if it's going to be as big a wast of space as the Chinese carp I have now. Again, for 1.0.0.0 RC1, should buttons like back, stop, play etc work on a genuine Microsoft remote?

Thanks

I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...
