[QUOTE="claimui, post: 652445, member: 106665"] According to the wiki: [url=http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/MediaPortalSetup_Remote/MicrosoftMCE]MediaPortalSetup_Remote/MicrosoftMCE - MediaPortal Manual Documentation[/url] In my case, what I had done is disabled the automatic handling of the MCE Remote in Windows (XP Pro in my case). You can do this with registry settings (there is another thread somewhere on how to do it). I did it through IRSS, which has a little checkbox that does the same thing. After I disabled automatic handling of the MCE Remote, I found that the arrow keys no longer work in Media Portal. As the wiki states, that's because MP depends on Windows to handle the arrow keys, so if the arrow keys don't work in Windows, they won't work in MP. Something like this may have happened in your case. I'm thinking that IRSS or the replacement driver or something you did disabled automatic handling, and now your arrow keys no longer work. Easiest way to check is to see if you can use your remote in any other Windows application. If the arrows are not working in Windows, then they won't work in MP. I'm still thinking about how to fix this. I would like to disable automatic handling (it interferes with MP on my computer in other ways), but I still want the arrow keys to work. Does anybody know if mapping the keys using the Translator tool in IRSS will do the trick? [/QUOTE]
