[QUOTE="and-81, post: 238799, member: 11844"] There's two ways... The easiest way is to install the Tray Launcher app, configure it and set the remote button and then set the program to MediaPortal. This is pretty straight forward and shouldn't be any problem for anyone coming from MPTray or MCE Replacement Tray. The more flexible way (moving towards controlling the whole PC with your remote) ... Use the Translator Application that is included in IR Server Suite. Create a system-wide mapping for the button you want to launch MediaPortal. Then create a program mapping for MediaPortal and check the box 'Ignore System-Wide mappings', this will prevent it from trying to load MediaPortal while you're in MediaPortal. I'm going to add a command "Run or Swap To" that will make it either start the program or task swap to it if it's already running. This may all seem like overkill for just a simple tray launcher, but it will give you the greatest flexibility in the future. Either way and you're moving to a more actively developed and supported system. Just make sure you uninstall MCE Replacement Plugin before trying to use IR Server Suite. Cheers, [/QUOTE]
