IRSS 1.4.2.4068 Not Working Correctly With NPVR (1 Viewer)

[BTJustice]

IR Server Suite - Test Build 1.4.2.4068

I have used different versions of IRSS with GBPVR (now replaced with NPVR) for a couple of years now. All I ever had to do with IRSS was (copy/pasted directions I have saved)...

1) Open the installer. During the setup, leave the default stuff checked but also check the boxes in front of...

- Under Tools, "Keyboard Input Relay".

- Under CommandLine Tools, "IR Blast" and "Hauppauge PVR Tuner".

2) After the installer finishes, the configuration for IR Server will appear. I have a Microsoft MCE device so I clicked on the CONFIGURE button for it. On the KEYBOARD tab, check the box in front of "Enable keyboard input". Click OK then OK again. The IR Server service will restart.

3) Now go to START > ALL PROGRAMS > IR SERVER SUITE > TRANSLATOR to open Translator.

- Check the box in front of "Start Translator with Windows".

- On the IR Commands tab, learn your STB codes for buttons 0-9.

- Click OK.

4) Open NPVR and go to SETTINGS.

- Open DEVICES > YOUR CARD

- Set the Executable to C:\Program Files (x86)\IR Server Suite\IRBlast.exe

- Set the Arguments to -host localhost -channel {channel} -delay 350

And that would always work. No problems. But with IRSS 1.4.2.4068, channels are no longer being changed. Going back to IRSS 1.4.2.3496 and now everything is working fine again.

IRSS 1.4.2.3496 is attached to this post.

My forum thread about this issue on the NPVR Forums is at IR Server Suite Not Working With NPVR

I do thank the developers of IRSS for this awesome program. THANKS!
