Ok.
I give up.
Guess I need some help.
I installed IR server suite today, I have never had luck with it in the past but after nuking all my pc's and rebuilding from scratch I can see the ir suite is in fact working but the up down left right ok and volume buttons are not working.
Not in MP and not on their own. When I run the debug client I get acknowledgement from the other buttons but not these. I had this same problem with RC2 on its own until I edited the MCE Remote XML file to map these functions. Since then MP works fine with its native remote function.

I can still use MP if I disable the IR plugin and go back to the built in system.
Its clear to me that the IR suite is not seeing these requests from teh remote, the debug is silent when I click. however with MP not running and the IR suite running. I can see it respond to all requests but those. To make things more interesting, I can use the remote to scroll up or down, left right all that good stuff if I am in say Notepad. So the OS is responding
But IR suite, she no go.
I am running Windows XP sp3. MP rc2 no svn.
IR Server Suite - Test Build 1.4.2 RC1
I have attached the service input logs for your review.

I thought that if I cold find the xml file that the input service uses for the mce remote, and update it I would be good to go. But I have no clue which it is. I also beleive if it works on its own, then this will solve the MP issue.

Let me know please.

looks like I may have sloved it myself.
I read some more about the ehome driver and found a doc that referred to making some reg entry changes.
did them and voila the IR server sees the codes being sent for up and down and so on.
But MP would not work, so I reinstalled the IR suite to reset any xml file I may have screwed up and bobs your uncle.
Its working.

but I ahe another question.
Can I use my USBUIRT IR transmitted to blast my stb while using an MCE remote on my HTPC's. I have one kicking around and was wondering if I can

Cheers
