[solved] MCE 'TV power' button not working in MP 1.13.0 (1 Viewer)

[404]

Now plug and play support has been removed for official MCE remote in MP 1.13.0 I can no longer use the 'TV' button (top left on handset) to exit MP....I don't use a keyboard or mouse except for setup so it impossible to close the program, Been trying to config the 'TV' button in HID setup but it seems it's just not recognised. All other buttons seem to behave as expected.
I would be grateful if someone could suggest a way around this....

Absolutely untrue, sorry for the misunderstanding. Support for MCE remote has been improved since 1.11 through our HID input handler.
MP 1.12 has seen the HID input handler further improved providing out-of-the-box support for most gamepads while our legacy 'Microsoft MCE' input handler was being deprecated.
MP 1.13 has seen that same non standard compliant 'Microsoft MCE' input handler removed.

Your problem has already been reported, you can easily workaround it by fixing your configuration editing XML files, use a preview build, or wait for MP 1.14 which should contain the fix.
You can also exit MediaPortal by hitting one of the direction arrow keys from the home screen depending of your skin. That should bring up a menu from which you can close MP or even shutdown your computer I believe.

Just edited the XML and it's working fine now.

Thanks to both of you for the help..
