Sk3wby ...6-delete the 4 CodeSetNum values with regedit doest not work on Win7, delete those codes does not affect mce remote.

maybe try this:

I purchased this MCE remote from newegg and it works well with MCE in xp, vista, and windows 7.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16880121003

One issue I was having was that with the default windows driver the remote functions like up,down,left, right, volume , work all the time. Disabling hid in event ghost did not prevent it.

One quick solution I found was to go into device manager, under keyboards, uninstall the ehome keyboard items. The remote will now only work inside of an application like xbmc.

Each time you reboot the pc it will reinstall them unless you do what I did and modify the inf file for the remote receiver.

The file name is :hidir.inf

Remove the sections that begin with \ ; Keyboard
It now shows as unkown device under HID devices, but still works with eventghost and XBMC. I can even use the green button to launch XBMC without media center popping up.
So unless I preset a button in eventghost , the buttons do nothing. Which is how I wanted it.

It is also much snappier, all the buttons repeat fast or slow depending on how I want them set. In eventghost I set the button delay to .10 for the mce plugin.
Then for each command I added the lines Wait: .2 Sec or whatever you want between key repeats, followed by Clear Pending Events.
So I can have something like play repeat really slow, but volume just hold it down and it increases fast.

    Have re-checked & on my system. 3018 automatically selects MCE remote, windows messages & X10 when starting Input Service Configuration for first time after install. I have a CM15Pro for X10 control and the ActiveHome software installed on my PC. Also an X10 plugin for MP but i do not have an X10 remote. Have de-selected the X10 in Input Service Configuration but no change. Re-installed 2975 and X10 is not auto-selected and MCE remote works fine again.

    Hi,

    Thankyou for your advice. I'm not sure i want to try something else (Event Ghost) just yet. IRSS does all i need (& a lot more i don't yet understand). Will stick with 2975 as it works flawlessly for me under W7, was just reporting a possible bug in new release. With regards to
    6-delete the 4 CodeSetNum values with regedit
    not working under W7. I did have problems when i first got W7 but i found as long as i installed in the order from my last post everything was fine. If "Disable Windows Media Center Services" was ticked (or even changed) the registry values would be re-written and become active after a reboot. I think the remote section in MP-config may have had a similar effect - i remember if i left MCE Remote ticked in MP-config many buttons did not work under W7. I also have UAC turned off - don't know if this would make any difference?

    thanks,
    Sk3wby

    Can I have some clean logs after you hit the detect button in configuration of 2975 please ?

    Hi chemelli,

    I'm using MP on a Win7 (x64) machine and have the same problems Sk3wby has with the newest version of IRSS. The server log is attached.
    I tried your debug-dll v2. Unfortunately MCE still doesn't work. Logs from debug-dll are attached.
    Is there any chance to get an older version in the meantime? I just upgraded from v 1.0.4.1 and now the remote doesn't work at all :(

    Ok we did some progress now. I'm quite confident that this v3 will fix it.

    Hey chemelli or any one else for that matter noticing sticky key behavour. When I'm inside MP and flip back to windows some times the Windows, Ctrl, Alt keys seem to be stuck, not in any particular order. Also in some cases had issues with basic windows functions when it came to the matter of mouse loosing functionality. Strangely enough was able to fix by doing CTRL ALT DEL or by closing IRSS.. Also when MP is exited it seems to disable irserver...

    Using latest version, don't recall having this issue with 2975. Please advise what logs would be of use. Thank you.
