Remote IR Hauppauge (1 Viewer)

[PaoloR]

Hi all.
My Mediaportal doesn't recognize the installed driver for IR remote of Hauppauge WIN TV.
It says to me: download the CD and use WINXP SP2.
I have installed MP on a PC Windows 7 Pro SP1.
Thanks.

Hi.
Here is what I did : (from the german forum part)

1. Install Driver + WinTV (just if you have installed WinTV the remote will be recognized as MCE Remote )
2. exit the task "IR.exe "
3. remove "IR.exe" from the autostart
4. In MePo Configuration -> Remote -> Microsoft MCE -> Use Microsoft MCE Remote (check the box)


My System:
Windows 8 Pro 32 bit
MePo 1.2.3
Hauppauge HVR-5500

Thanks for your reply.
I've tried, but my remote doesn't work.
I attach a picture for my remote Hauppauge: the Microstf MCE is very different and I can't use it.
My Hauppauge is WinTV Ministick.

Hi Paolor,

1. Uninstall WinTV if you have that installed.
2. Download and unzip the attached file.
3. Run IR32_27244.exe
4. Open mp config and select Remote > Hauppauge > tick 'Use Hauppauge Remote' check box

It works fine.
Thank you!!!

You should also be able to remove "IR.exe" from the autostart as DaGrizzly mentioned above, and it keep working. This can sometimes cause problems if it is running as well.
