    Make sure MPTray.exe is a running process in Task Manager, which remote are you using, is it recognised in Device manager as ehome ir receiver, it needs to be for green button to work.

    If not above then you may have to map a button to mediaportal.exe, using irserversuite or eventghost.

    Hi guys,

    Glad you got it working Monkey Butle.

    I'm having the same problems with MPtray.exe in XP Pro

    I've copied the files into the MediaPortal directory and ran the install.bat. mptray is a running process, also my MCE remote is listed in Device Manager > USB controllers > eHome Infrared Receiver.

    Still no joy... any ideas?

    MCE Remote not working

    Was there an update on this?
    I also have the listed requirements and still no dice.

    I meant use MP client to try to spot how it's requesting streams for specific channels and then try to do the same with VLC. TV Server development looks dead so I'm afraid you're going to have to figure that out by yourself if it's even possible.

    maybe setting loglevel to debug might pinpoint the difference between normal and stuck? Preferable with as much disabled as possible also try to see if anything is happening during stuck for the mediaportal process(resource monitor, disk activity, cpu usage, anything) maybe other programs competing for resouces?
