[fixed] RC2: MCE Remote not working (3 Viewers)

[cpsarros]

to the guys who use Windows Server 2008 R2:
i´m using this os to stream tv to some clients, but having some major problems with suttering or total interrupt of tv/radio stream.

do you have any problems like that?

No stuttering problems and definitely no interruptions. Minor problems disappeared after stop using SAF. Windows 2008 starts with no codec installed and this can be an advantage compared to Win7. However you should be more specific in order to be helped.

Hi! I have an MCE remote, too. I used to press the green button so I could start MP. Now the button doesn't work anymore. I always have to use the keyboard. =/ I'm using IR Suite, like always.

Hi

Yes Ok you´re right.


Server:
- i did a clean install of Server 2008 R2 on a AMD x2, 4GB Ram, ... (enough power i think)
- run this msi to support bda driver win2008workstation.com • View topic - TV Card (BDA Hardware Support)
- installed driver of my hauppauge Nova HD S2
- installed MP 1.1 RC2 (test with different versions)

Client:
- tested on various clients (Win7/XP)
- test with MP and TVviewer
- 1gbit/s connection

i don´t know what to do else to get it run. do you have any idea?

Timo

btw: just tried to use a ramdisk to speed up timeshift, but now its unwatchable :-D

You can try 2 things:
- Check if MCE Remote is activated in MediaPortal Config.
- When MCE has started Press Green Button a second time. Sometimes MCE does not have focus after starting with MPTray, when you press green again, it gets focus

More info: Correct detection of OS breaked the remote.

Others:
Workaround till RC3: just replace the provided dll

I have contacted the developer who took care about 2747.

Going to take care of it...

Fix is part of 0002860: check for specific OS should be clarified and made more robust - MediaPortal Bugtracker
