Hello everyone,
I was about to buy a FireDTV-C, when i bumped into some posts in FireDTV forum, where customers refer their problems about the fireDTV remote.
It seams that the fireDTV remote interacts with some televisions (mine's a LG - one of those refered in the posts).
Well... my question is: When i'm using Media Portal, how will i controll the fireDTV?
I'm using a MCE2005 remote with Media Portal. Will i change channels with the MCE2005 remote or will i use the fireDTV remote???

My best regards,
Ricardo Mendes

    You can use the MCE2005 remote for every control function in MP. I have the same setup with a FireDTV and MCE2005 remote. I haven't experienced what you mention but I find the fireDTV remote one of the ugliest I've seen and quickly put it in the back of a drawer. Haven't picked it up since.

    Go ahead with your purchase. FireDTV is an excellent DVB tuner! :)

    Yep i agree with Raven if the fire remote is unintentionally affecting the TV use the MCE remote.
