Hi,


I am using the latest beta of IRSS(1.4.2). With the other stable build(1.0.4.1)  I never really got the IR blasting to work within MP 1.0.


After I made TV3 Blaster Plugin for IR Server learn all the codes of my STB remote, I am able to change channels using the MCE remote from within MP. Then after a few hours, some of the IR codes for the numeric buttons (1-9) of the STB do not work while some do. If I go to TV Server Configuration | TV3 Blaster Plugin for IR Server and test the learnt numeric IR values only some of them blast the correct code (sometimes no code at all) to the STB. This does not happen with all the numeric codes but about half of them.


If I re-learn the numeric button IR codes for the STB, everything works OK but only for sometime. Any idea why?


Another important thing to note: When I start MP the MCE remote does not work. I have to do an Alt+TAB and close MP Watchdog. Then I can use the up and down arrows to select My TV. After the enter my TV and select "TV On" and go into fullscreen TV I cannot go back to the previous menu by pressing the back button of the MCE remote (The keyboard equivalent of Esc). At this time if I start IR Server Config and click OK without making any changes all my direction keys and back key works fine.


Again, this works only for a couple of hours or so until the problem of losing IR codes happen.


What all logs should I enable and where are they written?


This is really killing me. What is the solution to my problems?


Thanks,

Srikanth
