My Hauppage IR remote suddenly stopped working after being fine for some time. I attache the log file, does this tell anything about this situation?

Many thanks, Dave

    I can't see anything wrong with the remote control.
    What were you trying to do with it?

    I should say...
    It doesn't look like you pressed any buttons. So, maybe the remote control's batteries have died?

    Attached a new log with buttons having been pressed. Remote control turns TV on and of so batteries are good, I believe. Thanks, Dave

    I still don't see any problem... but I also still don't see any buttons being pressed.
    1. Open MP Configuration.
    2. Go to the "remotes and input devices" section.
    3. Go to the "Hauppauge" tab.
    4. Tick "extended logging".
    5. Click OK to save and close.
    6. Provide new log files.

    My apologies mm, I apparently have a bad connection of the ir sensor to the tuner board.
    Now, I have just installed 2.1. How do I configure my tuner, the IR remote control and the Schedules Direct plug-in for 2.1? Thanks again.

    I was just going to say that the log files confirmed either you're not pressing buttons or the remote control's driver is not telling MP that buttons are being pressed.

    Now, I have just installed 2.1. How do I configure my tuner, the IR remote control and the Schedules Direct plug-in for 2.1? Thanks again.
    As far as I'm aware MP2 doesn't support Hauppauge remote controls.
    Generally I don't provide support for MP2 (because I've never used it) so this is where my ability to assist you ends.

    Thanks! I think I'll stay with 1.14.

    Any reason why on 1.14?
    I was still on 1.12, because I don't like the new skin, but now online videos isn't working anymore with that version.

    I have looked at your log files, but as usual they are unintelligible gobbledegook.

    I recently installed 2.4.1. Can anyone tell me why my IE remote does not show up under Input Devices (I show only "WiFi Remote," which I do not have)? Device Manager lists Microsoft eHome Infrared Transceiver as working. I find the MP2 documentation quite confusing as to whether a plugin is needed or whether MP2 is supposed to work...

    Thanks. Your screenshot is showing the "TVGuide", the mentioned "MiniEPG" appears, if you press "enter" or "OK" during Live-TV. But you're right, the channel arrow and PIP button are not reachable by mouse, something insibile is overlapping them and preventing focus. I'll fix that. Anyway, I'll provide a new installer to you soon...
