[QUOTE="smarty12345, post: 1249680, member: 116919"] Probably not much help to you. But I use the same remote with MP1 and the "menu" key you refer to actually is mapped to right mouse click in windows. Which is likely why it behaves as such in MP2. In MP1 it doesn't do anything. But on windows desktop that's the button you would press to get the right click menu on a highlighted doc/folder. In MP1 the "return" button works as it should without issue and takes you up a level. Basically like hitting "Esc" on the keyboard. Play/Pause works as it should too.. But none of the other "media" buttons do anything in MP1 either. The "search" button pops out the windows 8 search pane. (cos I have windows 8.1 on the MP1 PC) I know MP2 has all that HID device stuff but I haven't really looked at it as every time I install a version of MP2 I'm always disappointed with it (mainly for input control reasons and end up giving up on it.) It may may be the HID stuff in MP2 is designed for the more typical WMC IR remotes. The remotes you and I have are basically keyboards. And MP2 keyboard key support seems to be pretty lacking from what I have found. Seems its more geared towards using an IR remote or a mouse. [/QUOTE]
