But then a error comes up says "C:\windows\ehome\eshell.exe - Application not found"

I have the latest Wintv drivers on an xp pro based machine. Also a 45 button hauppage remote control

Any help will be great. Thanx

Previously I had a lot of problems getting the same done, until I read somewhere that you need to use the old DOS notation.

From my irremote:

GRNPOWER={run("c:\progra~1\teamme~1\mediap~1\mediaportal.exe")}

This is the correct syntax

I noticed that on the line under the appropriate code, you have

MCEJEWEL={run(C:\windows\ehome\ehshell.exe)}

Googling I found references to ehshell.exe and eshell.exe in the context of M$ Media Center Edition. Try commenting this line out.

I was getting the same errors and this worked for me and should work for anyone else if using the default install directory. Copy this exactly as pasted here

GRNPOWER={run("c:\progra~1\teamme~1\mediap~1\mediaportal.exe")}

Note there is no space in media portal.exe

Also make sure you restart the IR software for the change to take affect.

I have also had this problem in the past. There are two components to this problem: Your internet router is pinging the HTPC at regular intervals in order to see if the HTPC is still present on the network. The network adapter in the HTPC has "Wake on Lan" enabled. So at the end of a recording, the HTPC transitions from away mode to...
