So I have set up my remote as per MCE and it is working great.

Glad to hear :D


1) How do I make it so when I click on the MCE button on the remote MediaPortal opens?

There is a simple plugin, MPtray:
MEDIAPORTAL - free media center - MPTray

Just download, unpack it in \program files\team mediaportal\mediaportal\ and run the BAT file "mptray_install.bat". Run it in a command prompt, within Mediaportal directory (just to see for any error).

You'll find then "mptray.exe" in Task Manager, started automatically at boot (very little and very few resource consuming). It make the green MCE button works ;)

There is also another plugin, MPTray-Mod; it does the same thing, but (for me) causes problems in MP responsiveness.

2) How do I make it so MCE does not respond when I press buttons such as the "Live TV' button.

Uhm. In Mediaportal config you can map/remap remote buttons (and remove mapping, I think), give it a try.

    Hello everyone,

    I'm also interested in this remote. Does anyone know if blasting from MP with this remote works, too?

    edit: I mean blasting not with the remote but with the transmitter, of course :)

    Regards,
    BartManson

    Anyone?

    The remote's usb dongle has a built-in ir transmitter. Is blasting with this transmitter supported by MP (or IRSS or ...)?

    I also have never used a set-top box with MP, but I think that you need to use an IR emitter (aka "IR blaster"). The IRSS software controls the emitter, and transmits IR signals under the direction of MP. The IR signal is received by the IR receiver within the set-top box, and so can be used to change channel and so on. The set-top...

    Does anyone else have problem with long (several hours) pauses of TV broadcasts? If I pause and forget, I can still resume TV the next day, but if I try to change channel or stop, MP freezes. Only way to fix is to restart both MP and TV Service. Sometimes I need to restart PC It seems that TVServer cannot proprtly handle large...

    Thank you very much for the tip. The Germany-Full doesn't have all the channels either. But I've now found out that I can read the frequencies using DVB-Viewer, which also receives all the channels I can receive. I'll use that to create my own channel file. Let's see if that works.
