Hi all, apologies if this post is in the wrong section, please move it to the correct place if so as I would really like to get this sorted out.
I have recently installed Windows 7 x64 RC and Media Portal 1.1.0 Beta. I have managed to tweak many of the settings and seem to have most things working, but have had trouble getting my media center remote to work properly.
I am using the keyboard input plugin which I previously used in Windows XP with Media Portal 1.0.2. I have configured all the mappings as I had them previously, but I just cant get it to work properly. The playback buttons do not work (stop button changes the screen AR, play/pause etc just dont work at all, rewind acts as the back button) even though they had been mapped. I also tried a fix to replace the remoteplugin.dll file in the media portal directory which I saw on another post within the forums. It seems to be a reasonably common problem after looking around at many posts but I have yet to find a solution a nd am hoping someone here may be able to offer one or recommend an alternative plugin to keyboardinputplugin that has worked for them.
The remote I am using has a usb based receiver and is a no-name media center remote that came bundled with a copy of power cinema last year but worked perfectly with the keyboardinputplugin previously.
