[QUOTE="Shurik, post: 97101, member: 27729"] Hi guys, Maybe someone out there can help me with this issue. I just installed MP few days ago, fought with Hauppauge MCE Kit (eHome remote + blaster) to make sure that I can control my STB using IR blaster. MCE Replacement plugin helped me with that and now I am able to switch channels on my STB when viewing TV in normal mode, but for two nights in a row I was trying to test automatic recording and both times I woke up to find that recording happened, but on a wrong channel (STB was not told to [did not] switch to the proper channel).. So, this morning I decided to try and see what's going on and set MP to record a show that was about to start.. So, few minutes in advance I got a prompt asking whether I still want to record it, but it disappeared faster than I could reach for remote. So, I thought that was the problem - maybe it expected me to confirm? But then MP did switch to the proper channel and started recording. Also, when I left MP running for the night, I left it in the main menu, while this morning I was in the TV guide with some channel actually playing in a preview window.. Would this somehow affect the fact that channels were not properly switched? Hope this makes sense..
