I had hoped this would be a solution to my problems with the Hauppauge remote as well but even after downloading the latest IR drivers and hcwclear.exe, the rest of the files in step 1 are way out of date. hardware wizard doesn't start and the setup.exe doesn't support current operating systems. I'd look for current version of the package in step 1. Would someone please point me what to look for at Hauppauge site?Try this:
1. Download this file.
2. Run it so it unpacks itself to a directory.
3. Download the Hauppauge IR drivers from MediaPortal homepage, overwriting the IR32.exe that you unpacked in step 2.
4. Run hcwclear.exe and choose the options "Remove All WinTV Drivers and Applications (Total Removal)" and "Search All .INF Files for Conflicting Hardware".
5. Reboot
6. When the new hardware wizard starts, tell it to look for drivers in the directory you unpacked the drivers to in step 2. ("No, not this time", "Install from a list or specific location", "Search for driver in these locations")
7. Run Setup.exe in the driver directory and make sure to install the IR drivers. You should not have to install the WinTV programs and such.
NOTE!
It is not enough to just run IR32.exe instead of Setup.exe in step 7, that is the mistake I made. The Setup.exe updates the drivers somehow, so it has to be run.
