[QUOTE="ferrocene, post: 728681, member: 109549"] That's strange. I use a Harmony One with EventGhost and MediaPortal. Works ok, trying to work out a few "bonus" features. With the mediaportal plugin for eventghost, when i push a button, it triggers the mediaportal macro. only one button press shows up. In the logitech software, I set the remote as a microsoft 1039 i think. Something similar to that. Then I'm using the MessagePlugin with MCE remote to capture the eventghost windowing messages. It also worked when I didn't use eventghost and just had mediaportal checked to use MCE remote. There were 2 problems though: 1. I can't start mediaportal this way. In eventghost, the power button launches the program. 2. If mediaportal doesn't have focus, it doesn't do anything! I have a dual-monitor setup, with the 46" LCD TV as the 2nd monitor and a 30' HDMI/DVI cable. If I start using my computer, the remote stops working. This way, with eventghost, even if I'm browsing the web, the remote still sends events to the right window. I bought the Vista MCE remote just to get the IR receiver, it was like $25 online.
