[QUOTE="superman859, post: 476181, member: 95844"] I'm having some trouble getting MP configured correctly with a harmony 550. I have Win XP Pro SP3 Harmony 550 Antec Fusion case w/ IR receiver MP ... The remote kind of controls mediaportal, but not very much. The directional pad on the remote works like the up/down/left/right arrow keys do for mediaportal to navigate the menus, and the Ok button on the remote works like enter. This seems to be about all that works. I cannot figure out how to exit media portal, go back to a previous menu, pause a video once running (started using Ok button), etc. I'm mainly interested to know if it is possible to program the remote to open MediaPortal, and also pause when using 'Watch Videos' as these are the two features I would need most in addition to the arrow key functions that do work. To pause, the spacebar on a keyboard works. I went to MP Config and set it to MCE remote with default config. I noticed that the mapping shows Play button mapped to play, pause button mapped to pause, etc. However, when I actually push the buttons, the VFD on my computer case says 'No Defined Command' for all of those buttons. I'm wondering if some general MCE remote software needs to be installed. Where are these commands actually defined in XP Pro? Also, I noticed there are some commands on my remote for blue button, yellow button, etc. - what do these do? I have no idea - where would they be mapped? Similarly, some buttons have the VFD display "Quick Launch" as if it should be starting an application, yet no application opens. Do these have to be programmed somewhere? [/QUOTE]
