MediaPortal Tray Launcher (3 Viewers)

[joecrow]

I know this hasn't been updated in a long time (such a shame), but it's not working on Windows 10 for me. Green button does nothing. Anyone else confirm this?

It is working fine for me in Win 10 Pro x64 with Hama/Ortec generic(cheap) MCE remote. The std. tray launcher did not work. Make sure you disable the auto restart before installing then re-enable it afterwards, the tray launcher icon should then appear, point the mouse at it and it should say "Media Tray Launcher .04". If you have multiple accounts you may need to disable/re-enable the autostart in each account on the PC.
Hope that helps

I'm guessing if MPtray would can launch two separate script (batch, autoit script, powershell script, exe ...) to execute some action before start Media Portal and after its close

It would be fine because I've a script created to AutoIT to perform some action such as select the Hdmi audio device , switch the monitor (plasma from secondary to main) and return to original setup

Now I've to use LMremote or Intelliremote only to handle the green buttom because Media Portal work great with MCE remote using HID generic device support)

And those softwares have some problems with new Windows 10 builds (Redstone that become offical next Tuesday)



Thanks

Hi all, I'm new to media portal. I was wondering if the MP tray download link works for anyone else I am seeing a 404 error. Additionally is this needed for both Media portal 1 and 2? Or does it only work with 1?
Never mind, it looks like it is supposed to be built into MP2

I'm seeing 404 also, looks like the developers website is gone, A copy of the program has been posted in this thread on Page 5 (2nd from bottom) so you can get it from there. Please note this version replaces the regular tray launcher with one that works with the Ortek/Hama/Auvisio remote, I use it on MP1, not sure it works with MP2. I always get an error after running the installer and clicking on finish, just click OK and don't forget to enable it in the confog. program.

I also use the Ortek/Hama remote with MP1, but I use an AutoHotKey script to start MP1 from the desktop (via the START button on the Ortek/Hama). The advantage of AutoHotKey is that it is possible to do several other things too, to address some of the quirks in the Ortek/Hama.

It would be simple to change the AutoHotKey script to start MP2 instead of MP1, but I am not sure whether the Ortek/Hama remote works with MP2. It did not previously, but I have a vague recollection that one of the MP2 developers or users investigated it earlier this year, and perhaps got something working.
