Using Windows 7 RC1 with MP 1.0.2.0 and an MCE remote. Only the arrow and OK buttons are functioning in MP. I previously was using MP 1.0.0.0 with Windows Vista SP1 and the remote worked fine out of the box.

I have "use MCE remote" checked in the configuration. How can I troubleshoot this issue?

    How does your "MCE" remote work with Win7, my original MCE remote works fine, so is recognised by MP.

    How does it work? It just does... Same as it did with Vista, at least I don't think I did.
    I have a USB IR receiver that came with it

    Picture of remote attached...

    That's the Hauppauge MCE remote which is RC6 (M$ specification) for their remotes, so should work fine :confused:

    There are a few strange things that happen with Win7 for myself, so do not consider the RC a daily functional system, so be prepared for surprises.

    I assumed there would be some strange things, but "strange" things are usually fixable, however I have no idea how to troubleshoot this issue... is there some advanced logging I can do? Is there a way to teach MP what keys are getting pressed?

    Have you selected MCE remote in MediaPortal Configuration>Remote?

    :sorry: I see that you have already stated that you did that.

    I had the same problem with 7 RC1.

    Fixed it by instaling the IR-Suite thingy form the plugins section.

    1. Install left all settings as default.
    2. Deselect MCE controller in MP Config.

    and away we go, all buttons working again.

    There is a tread in here some where about it.
