Hi,

when i using the Philips remote from tv mediaportal react on some buttons.
press Exit-button on Philips remote mediaportal switch to "Radio" for example.
press a volume+/- button on Philips remote is the same as right/left by using hauppauge remote.
In another version of MP i didn't detect this issue.

1. If existant, delete the file \InputDeviceMappings\custom\Hauppauge HCW.xml

2. Open the file \InputDeviceMappings\default\Hauppauge HCW.xml and remove the whole section <remote family="Hauppauge 21-button remote"> to </remote>

3. Save the file & be happy


Background: Some user requested support for the old 21-button Hauppauge remote back. Unfortunately its IR signals interfere with some TV sets. By removing the whole section MP doesn't care anymore about those signals. Perfect in your case.
