Could everyone who is testing IR Server Suite please download a new copy ...
The new file is for 2007-06-13 so update the link I last sent you with the new ending and you'll be able to get it.
I've found a bug that was causing a moment of high cpu load every 30 seconds or so...
I've also put in the ability to use one IR device as a receiver and another as a transmitter on the same PC.
Please don't share the address of the file, my host will complain if it gets too many downloads. Thanks.
NickName: I haven't figured out what's causing the suspend problems for you, because I am as yet unable to reproduce it. But as soon as I know more I'll let you know. Please use the newer version anyway in the meantime.
Hi Aaron,
of course i´ll not spread the link. unfortunately my pc has been damaged at the weekend, probably the reason for all my probs in the recent past, i guess it´s the new radeon 9250 or the RAM.
the last results i wrote to you per mail where that the crashes have been gone (thanks) and the learning was ok but my settop box (motorola) didn´t want to respond.
however i´ll test the new release asap (but not before the weekend).
many thanks again to you. ys, LX.
Thanks Aaron.
I appreciate your efforts. I am surprised it is not affecting anyone else as it occurs on two different HTPCs of mine...
I guess I am just lucky ;-)
aaron - installation was a breeze and, after a little poking around, setup is equally simple. a few questions i've put together:
- i'm able to launch programs via blastzone (can we do this in fewer clicks?), but i haven't sorted out how to bring them to the foreground - should i minimise mp, then launch the app?
- i'm using translator to send keystrokes to control my external software, but how do i enter non-standard keystrokes? arrow keys, space, ctrl-keys, etc.
- in translator, how do you determine the message to send to an external program for commands that can't be activated by keystrokes? i'd like to set up joost, for example, but i'm not sure eg how i would map a key on my remote to bring up the channel catalog.
thanks for a brilliantly flexible plugin. cheers.

I can answer some of your questions for you.
I control Joost via the Transalator. Press F1 in Joost to get list of the keystrokes you can use. AFAIK there is no key for the Channel Catalogue though but you can still change channels and programs in the channels by using {UP}, {DOWN, {LEFT} & {RIGHT}.
The other non-standard keystrokes work like keystrokes in VBScript. ie. {SPACE}, (ENTER}, etc.
Hi just a quick question.
I see that the new MP version is almost ready, and this will be the last with the "old TV2 engine".
So what will happend with all us unlucky guys who only have a Hauppauge IR-reciever and IR-blaster. The one wich is connected through the TV-card (PVR-150).
Aaron did you have time to look into this issue, so we can use the IR Server Suite as well ??
